Risky Bulletin: RPKI infrastructure sits on shaky ground

Researchers have identified security vulnerabilities in Resource Public Key Infrastructure (RPKI) Publishing Point servers that could be exploited to disrupt global internet routing validation. A forthcoming paper at the Network and Distributed System Security Symposium will detail how attacks on these critical infrastructure components could prevent routers from properly validating routing information.

Why it matters: Network operators and internet infrastructure providers must understand RPKI vulnerabilities to assess exposure to routing attacks that could destabilize internet connectivity and enable traffic hijacking.
