networking - Security of DNS answers -
i have been searching information regarding topic found no direct answer. possible following happen:
pc 1: -opens udp socket in port x -sends request dns server resolve name
meanwhile
a hacker captures packet in internet, , himself answers request wrong answer
can happen? if not, prevents this? dns uses ssl or security mechanism? our operative systems use secure communications dns servers?
thanks in advance
the scenario present possible. it's 1 of reasons why dnssec invented.
dnssec allows resolver client check chain of cryptographic signatures dns record way tree trust anchor (which dns root).
