  1. Incorrect DNS Records: Mistyped or outdated records can lead to service disruptions or unintentional traffic redirection.

  2. Open DNS Resolvers: Leaving DNS resolvers open to the public can enable attackers to use them for Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) amplification attacks.

  3. Lack of DNSSEC Implementation: Failing to implement DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC) leaves the system vulnerable to cache poisoning and spoofing attacks.

  4. Improper Forwarding Configurations: Misconfigured DNS forwarding can expose sensitive queries to unauthorized parties.
