One in four public-facing domain name system (DNS) servers on the internet are still vulnerable to the Kaminsky flaw, according to the fourth annual survey of DNS servers by network services vendor Infoblox. To provide a safer internet browsing experience, recursive services are being provided free of charge. Apple released a security update for its Mac OS X to fix several security issues, most notably for the notorious DNS cache poisoning problem and a vulnerability within PostScript font names. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) has announced the availability of an online FAQ and online tool to help raise awareness for the recently discovered hazardous DNS flaw. DNS cache poisoning is not just for web browsers anymore. According to researcher Dan Kaminsky, there are a variety of programs that make requests of DNS servers, including games and a number of desktop applications. A DNS design flaw, which could have allowed remote attackers to silently hijack web sessions, prompted Tuesday's release of an unprecedented multivendor patch. A new threat that poisons DNS caches has been identified. The DNS cache poisoning, has got security firms scrambling to provide protection.
Researchers have developed a browser security system that protects against the recently-revealed DNS vulnerability and other Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks. Security researcher Dan Kaminsky has delivered his much-anticipated report on the DNS flaw he discovered earlier this year. When researcher Dan Kaminsky reveals details behind the major DNS protocol vulnerability next month at Black Hat, it may not be such a surprise anymore. Apple has released a security patch which fixes a much-publicised flaw in Domain Name Server (DNS) security, which could have allowed cache-poisoning attacks. The first attacks to on the Kaminsky DNS vulnerability have been reported. A Russian physicist has successfully hacked an emergency patch designed to fix a recently discovered DNS vulnerability. Leopard remains vulnerable to cache poisoning, say researchers. Malicious DNS redirection at the server level is growing with the proliferation of open-recursive DNS servers, according to a new joint research paper. An advisory group contends that the scramble over Dan Kaminsky's DNS flaw discovery proves that full disclosure is simply not feasible. A White House office is ordering all federal agencies to implement a new standard for securing DNS connections. The automatic update features in many software applications are proving to be vulnerable to attack. Hackers are taking notice. You should, too. Over half of internet service providers believe that new threats could emerge with the deployment of the new Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6), according to the latest annual worldwide Infrastructure Security Report from Arbor Networks.
