In a recent revelation by Akamai security researchers, a chink in the armor of DNS security has been exposed.
This vulnerability, resulting from exploiting DHCP DNS Dynamic Updates, opens the door for attackers to engage in the deceptive art of DNS record spoofing.

Spoofing these records allows attackers to redirect unsuspecting users to malicious websites, mimicking legitimate platforms like banks, social media sites, and even internal company resources.
This enables them to steal login credentials, access sensitive information, and even launch further attacks within the network.
