All,

I just spotted what appears to be a fast flux - botnet serving up
Phished | malware sites referencing Facebook.

We had a customer with an exploited server that was auth for
centredownloadpatch.com and needplaeradobe.com for a short stint. Both
domains have numerous A' records and very low TTL, so this is likely
fastflux or botnet related.

Note that ns2.castlebin.com appears to be pointed at a DOD network /32,
which is lame delegation and once I impacted the routing for what was
ns1.castlebin.com on our end, 8.12.160.183 took up the slack with a
matter of minutes it seemed.
