Baidu pwn3d by Iranian DNS hijackers

Published by under China internet

The Iranian Cyber Army has compromised the DNS records for baidu.com by logging into their DNS management portal at register.com.  You might remember the Iranian Cyber Army from their recent twitter DNS compromise.  There are many blogs and news outlets reporting on this.

I know some readers might wonder if this will spark some sort of cyber war between Iran and the PRC.
