An Analysis of DepenDNS
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, a new scheme to protect clients against DNS cache poisoning attacks was introduced. The scheme is referred to as DepenDNS and is intended to protect clients against such attacks while being secure, practical, efficient and conveniently deployable. In our paper we examine the security and the operational aspects of DepenDNS. We highlight a number of severe operational deficiencies that the scheme has failed to address. We show that cache poisoning and denial of service attacks are possible against the scheme. We also demonstrate a high factor amplification attack against DepenDNS, which can lead to a large scale Internet denial of service attack. Our findings and recommendations have been validated with real data collected over time.

DepenDNS: Dependable Mechanism against DNS Cache Poisoning
DNS cache poisoning attacks have been proposed for a long time. In 2008, Kaminsky enhanced the attacks to be powerful based on nonce query method. By leveraging Kaminsky’s attack, phishing becomes large-scale since victims are hard to detect attacks. Hence, DNS cache poisoning is a serious threat in the current DNS infrastructure. In this paper, we propose a countermeasure, DepenDNS, to prevent...
متن کاملThe Determinants of Exchange Rate System: an Empirical Analysis
Since the breakdown of the Bretton Woods System, exchange arrangements of countries have become flexible. Several attempts have been made to determine whether the theories of optimum currency areas adequately explain the choice of an exchange rate system. In this paper, the optimum currency area is retested. Using cross-section data, a regression analysis of the choice of an exchange rate syste...

Buckling Analysis of Rectangular Laminated Composite Plates With An Edge Delamination Under Compressive Load
The buckling analysis of rectangular laminated composite plates with an edge delamination under in-plane compressive loading is performed using the finite element method. Such a plate may be considered as a simplified model of stiffener plates of a stiffened panel. The buckling load and buckling mode are obtained by solving an eigenproblem. In an unconstrained analysis, physically inadmissible ...
