DNS Spoofing - Variants

Variants

In the following variants, the entries for the server ns.target.example would be poisoned and redirected to the attacker's nameserver at IP address w.x.y.z. These attacks assume that the nameserver for target.example is ns.target.example.

To accomplish the attacks, the attacker must force the target DNS server to make a request for a domain controlled by one of the attacker's nameservers.
