In response to a heightened security alert, Microsoft has updated its customer advisories for protecting its server software against DNS cache poisoning attacks.
The software giant revised its recommended settings for some Windows Server products late Wednesday, clarifying which default configurations could leave computers open to the DNS poisoning threat. The security update was triggered by a report from the Internet Storm Center that it had received notices of a number of DNS cache poisoning attacks.
