BGP exploit causing quite a stir
Although it has been known for over a decade, an exploit of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) recently re-entered the spotlight at DEFCON 16 in a presentation by Anton Kapela and Alex Pilosov. The presentation is entitled "Stealing The Internet - A Routed, Wide-area, Man in the Middle Attack ".

You can read about the exploit on the Wired Threat level blog at http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2008/08/revealed-the-in.html and you can download the slides from the presentation at https://www.defcon.org/images/defcon-16/dc16-presentations/defcon-16-pilosov-kapela.pdf
