New Network Digital (xinnet) is one of the largest domain name registrars, currently its international Domain name registration is ranked 16th in the world, the number is close to 1 million. In addition to the Non-public domain name registration amount, the estimated number of its management domain name reached millions of.
However, according to the recent news from Www.mynic.com.cn, the new network Digital 08 new upgrade of the domain name management platform for serious loopholes, millions of new network domain names face many hidden dangers.
Mynic is one of the earliest agents of the new Network Digital (hereinafter referred to as "Mynic"), the development of new network digital over the years is of great concern. According to Mynic, since the new network in August this year to switch agents from the old management platform to the new management platform, that is, through the new management platform loopholes, can directly manage the new network digital agents registered under the domain name, even including the new network digital official domain name xinnet.com.
In view of the new network digital and all its agents and domain name holders responsible for consideration, mynic in August after the discovery of loopholes immediately notify the new network digital related departments, and asked to fix the loophole immediately. It is regrettable, however, that as of today (September 11), the loophole has not been repaired, and the new network does not seem to be concerned about it, ignoring the dangerous situation facing the millions of domain names.
According to the mynic provided by the example, the severity of the hidden danger is self-evident, in addition to can modify the domain name whois information at any time, even xinnet.com DNS server can be arbitrarily modified.
If only the xinnet.com DNS server is modified, then only the new network digital official site is affected.
But more serious, according to Mynic said, through the loophole can also be arbitrarily modified xinnet.cn domain name registered DNS, such as ns.xinnet.cn/ns2.xinnet.cn. If the loophole is exploited by the lawless, the consequences will be disastrous. Light causes millions of domain name collective strike, the heavy person may cause millions of domain name to be guided to the bad website at the same time.
Mynic does not provide more examples for security reasons.
In any case, the domestic largest domain Registrar system occurs in this kind of situation is indeed breathtaking, I hope that the new network digital can immediately arouse attention, as soon as possible to repair loopholes to avoid the consequences.
