Open DNS Recursive Resolver Attack

Dear blog reader, few days back I have face a huge DNS Amplification/Reflection attack from Mikrotik (MT) router. The Attack has been organized from different source to different destination.  This attack also has been seen in different vendor router like d-link di-1705b, Buffalo,AirLive, Cisco(Cisco Systems, Inc. Firmware: 4608) The Attack is possible because of MT router apply following tcp and udp packet filter destination port 53.  IP>firewall>filter rules chain=input action=drop protocol=udp in-interface=ether1-WAN dst-port=53 chain=input action=drop protocol=tcp in-interface=ether1-WAN dst-port=53 Same rule can be maintain for other router to block and disable resolver. Please Note: in-interface should be your WAN port. How to check your IP is used as open resolver Linux command #dig -t A jpudasaini.com.np @8.8.8.8 Note: Replace 8.8.8.8 with your IP address
