T 5.51 Abuse of Routing Protocols<br />

Routing protocols such as RIP (Routing <strong>Information</strong> Protocol) or OSPF (Open<br />

Shortest Path First) serve to pass on changes to routes between two networked<br />

systems to the systems concerned, thereby making s a dynamic change of the<br />

routing tables possible. It is easily possible to generate incorrect RIP packets<br />

and thus to configure undesirable routes.<br />

<strong>The</strong> use of dynamic routing makes it possible to send routing information to a<br />

computer which usually uses this information unchecked to build up its<br />

routing tables. <strong>The</strong> invader can exploit this to change the transmission route in<br />

a particular way.<br />
