TCP and DNS Spoofing

Another class of spoofing attack, which we will not discuss here, tricks the user’s software into an inappropriate action by presenting misleading information to that software. Examples of such attacks include TCP spoofing, in which Internet packets are sent with forged return addresses, and DNS spoofing, in which the attacker forges information about which machine names correspond to which network addresses. These other spoofing attacks are well known, so we will not discuss them further.
