If your Internet-enabled device doesn't have a DNSSEC-validating resolver (with solid trust anchors for the root zone), then this entire conversation is irrelevant. If your Internet-enable device does have a DNSSEC-validating resolver either on the device or within an acceptable zone or risk[1] then the chain of trust back up to the root zone of DNS will mean that I will notice a substitution and get a SERVFAIL. It may mean that the attacker could DoS me and prevent me from going to a site, but I don't see where I would wind up on the bogus site. [1] For example, I have a DNSSEC-validating resolver on the edge of my home network. Yes, an attacker could still compromise my home network and send me forged responses. I consider that less likely and am willing to take that risk. |
