Speaker

Yehuda Afek (Tel-Aviv University)

Description

We will review different DNS DDoS vulnerabilities identified by academic institutions over the past five years, such as NXNS, NRDelegation, and the recent CacheFlush Attacks discovered by our group.
The commonalities, differences and causal relationships between these attacks will be highlighted.
We will then discuss how these vulnerabilities were discovered and explore whether there is a systematic way to discover all DNS vulnerabilities and harden the protocol.

Talk duration 10 Minutes (+discussion panel time)
