Could some one explain what this alert means. DNS SPOOF query response with ttl: 1 min. and no authority
A DNS query response would be expected to return name server records for the subject of the query; then the nameserver queried would be said to be "authoritative" for the subject.
Whatever you've received had no authoritative records. The output of snort played back from a binary log of mine has this: 20:02:36.534182 209.192.217.105.domain > 12.82.128.69.1025: [udp sum ok] 21427* q: PTR? 57.0/24.67.28.64.in-addr.arpa. 1/3/3The 1/3/3 indicate this response had one answer record, three authoritative records, and three additional records
For this snort rule (and one other in dns.rules) the lack of any authority records, combined with a TTL of 1 represents the problem.
