Also, somehow the "abusing the Internet" thing became synonymical to "abusing internet routing protocols" (otherwise why everyone is bringing up the BGP issue). Can't there be other things to be abused? like authentication certs, PKI infrastructures, authentication mechanisms to control domain naming, RIPE or other registrar databases ... ?
Indeed. A recursive delete of at least child route: objects of a maintainer for which you had gained the correct plaintext would be fairly brutal if executed say 30 minutes before Level(3) and co updated their filters in Europe. As I recall due to the hierarchy in RIPE and other derived IRR databases you cannot delete the maintainer itself, though it would I think be trivial to reverse the damage with cooperation from the IRR. Also due to the lack of appropriate filtering outside of the European space you would only garner partial or localised outages. Still though it's enough to piss on someones fire in the holiday season. That said rich text search for CRYPT-PW may still be fun for 500 results or so. Audit trail and limited footprint have stopped this from surfacing thus far I'd wager. _______________________________________________ Dailydave mailing list Dailydave () lists immunitysec com http://lists.immunitysec.com/mailman/listinfo/dailydave
