Just when you thought DNS cache poisoning was a thing of the past, Steve and Leo reveal why this 17-year-old bug is making a dramatic comeback—and why most DNS resolvers still can't manage high-quality random numbers after all this time. The unsuspected sucking power of a Linux-based robot vacuum. Russia to follow China's vulnerability reporting laws. A pair of Scattered Spider UK teen hackers arrested. Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok violating the EU's DSA. Microsoft Teams bringing user WiFi tracking by policy. You backed up. That's great. Did you test that backup? Coveware reports all-time low ransomware payment rate. Ransomware negotiator reports how the bad guys get in. Lots of listener thoughts and feedback about NIST passwords. And against all reason and begging credulity, it seems we still haven't managed to put high-quality random number generators into our DNS resolvers.
