Team,

I've just been made aware of another DNS based DDoS attack. The sources
appear to be spoofed, but I'll work on getting source IPs to verify with.

Can you please check to see if you have traffic (port 53/UDP) to:

ns-1.name.com: 174.129.223.8
ns-2.name.com: 174.129.223.37

As it stands now, I'm under the impression that the domain below is the
only one pointing to the above two NS servers, so if you see traffic,
pretty good indication it's malicious.

Domain being queried for: www.pai999.net

;; ANSWER SECTION:
www.pai999.net.         300     IN      A       112.213.97.201


name.com has moved this off of their regular name servers, though their
still may be some residual and I'm waiting for verification on that:

ns1.name.com - 174.129.223.247, 4.79.81.159
ns2.name.com - 38.97.225.164, 38.97.225.183



Queries look like:

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated, would love to track the C2
down.

Cheers,
