It may be possible for for an attacker to send updates either from the
outside or perhaps more effectively from inside via a compromised host. 
In addition to authentication mechanisms, anti-spoofing/sanity filters
could also help.  Disabling the reception/advertisement of updates from
certain physical interfaces entirely that don't need them may also be
helpful.
