An Illustrated Guide to the Kaminsky DNS Vulnerability

An Illustrated Guide to the Kaminsky DNS Vulnerability

[Security] Posted Aug 8, 2008 21:09 UTC (Fri) by jake

Steve Friedl has a comprehensive guide to the Kaminsky DNS vulnerability. Lavishly illustrated with packet dumps and network traffic diagrams, it explains DNS and what Kaminsky found in great detail. "This has been an exceptionally serious vulnerability because it undermines the very faith in DNS: this is at the core of the internet. Most experts believe that if you can't trust DNS, all else is lost, and we're of this same mind."
