Attack Code Published For DNS Vulnerability

get_Rootin writes "That didn't take long. ZDNet is reporting that HD Moore has released exploit code for Dan Kaminsky's DNS cache poisioning vulnerability into the point-and-click Metasploit attack tool. From the article: 'This exploit caches a single malicious host entry into the target nameserver. By causing the target nameserver to query for random hostnames at the target domain, the attacker can spoof a response to the target server including an answer for the query, an authority server record, and an additional record for that server, causing target nameserver to insert the additional record into the cache.' Here's our previous Slashdot coverage."

    I exploited this and let a huge cache of people visit my site(127.0.0.1) in stead of the site they wanted to go. It was kickass.

    For fuck's sake, whoever is DDoSing 4chan needs to stop already! The tards have spread out and are trolling the whole internet. At least the 4chan cesspool kept them all mostly in one place. Now they're left with nowhere to go and are taking their idiocy all over the internet!

    Shit, you should check out some of the songs that are longer than a minute, there's some good ones out there, but, yes...those quick little punk ditties are good too.

    And also a solar storm can knock out the entire internet and power grid. And at any time we can be hit by a gamma ray burst or a black hole from the LHC can suck us all up. Yeah, internet security is never going to be 100%, DUH! Is it really even worth mentioning?

    Unfortunately it.slashdot.org has already been poisoned; you actually posted that request to an elaborate mock-up of the real slashdot, and the replies are coming from l33t hackers who are supplying you with false DNS servers which currently appear to work correctly.

    You'd best disconnect from the internet and burn your computer. It's the only way to be sure.
