Recover detected DNS cache poisoning attack message
I have ESET Smart Security installed on one of my PCs and recently received a warning message that says:
Oops! That definitely didn’t sound good. A DNS cache poisoning attack is basically the same as DNS spoofing, which basically means that the DNS name server cache has been compromised and when a web page is requested, instead of the real server, the request is redirected to a malicious computer that can download spyware or viruses onto the computer.
I decided to run a full anti-virus scan and also downloaded Malwarebytes and ran a malware scan. Neither scan came up with anything, so I started doing some more research. If you look at the screenshot above, you can see that the "remote" IP address is actually a local IP address (192.168. 1.1). That IP address happens to be my router's IP address! So my router is poisoning my DNS cache?
