DNS Flaw Concerns

Brian Prince at PCMag.com says that security researcher Dan Kaminsky has been afraid of what he uncovered in a DNS protocol vulnerability. Kaminsky apparently told reports attending the Black Hat conference in Las Vegas "I spent the last month terrified of large companies having all their e-mail stolen because of a bug that I found," Prince writes in his article, that Kaminsky has explained "it is a game of dominoes—one domino could be redirecting Web traffic to malicious sites, the next could be interception of sensitive corporate e-mail. The possibilities are numerous and problematic." Scary stuff!
