CubePilot drone software dev hit by DNS hijacking to intercept traffic

CubePilot, an Australian developer of drone flight controller software, experienced a DNS hijacking attack that disrupted operations. The attacker redirected DNS queries to intercept traffic flowing through the company's infrastructure. The incident illustrates the risks posed by compromised domain name resolution for operational technology vendors.

Why it matters: Drone operators and integrators relying on CubePilot products face potential service interruptions and data exposure; practitioners should verify DNS security controls and monitor for unauthorized domain redirects affecting critical suppliers.
