Internet infrastructure protocols were designed at the very early stages of
computer networks when 'cyberspace' was still perceived as a benign
environment. As a consequence, malicious attacks were not considered to be
a major risk when these protocols were designed, leaving today's Internet
vulnerable. This paper provides an analysis of OSPF vulnerabilities that
could be exploited to modify the normal routing process across a single
domain together with an assessment of when internal OSPF mechanisms can or
cannot be leveraged to better secure a domain.
