BobB writes "HD Moore has been owned. Moore, the creator of the popular
Metasploit hacking toolkit, has become the victim of a computer attack. It
happened on Tuesday morning, when Moore's company, BreakingPoint, had some  
of
its Internet traffic redirected to a fake Google page that was being run  
by a
scammer. According to Moore, the hacker was able to do this by launching  
what's
known as a cache poisoning attack on a DNS server on AT&T's network that  
was
serving the Austin, Texas, area. One of BreakingPoint's servers was  
forwarding
DNS (Domain Name System) traffic to the AT&T server, so when it was  
compromised,
so was HD Moore's company."
