dEEpEst Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 DNS Analysis Server DNS security? The DNS (Domain Name System) is a central part of the Internet and allows us to, for example, resolve domain names like "google.com" into IP addresses like "142.250.180.206". But what happens, if this DNS name resolution is vulnerable? In this case, an attacker can manipulate the mapping between domain names and associated data. All of a sudden "google.com" could be pointing to "13.33.33.37" instead of Google's actual IP address. The consequences of such DNS vulnerabilities range from bypassing e-mail spam protections to compromising entire systems. For example, in some cases it's possible to take over a fully patched WordPress instance "just" by manipulating the DNS resolution. Now, to check for vulnerabilities in the DNS name resolution, the DNS Analysis Server comes into play.
