Preparation 1) Under Linux environment 2) Some documents that you may need to refer to: • 'Virtual-MachineGuide.pdf' • ‘Linux-Guide.pdf’ • ‘BLOSSOM-UserGuide.pdf’ 3. Tasks Setup & Installation: • Start two virtual machines as you have done with previous exercises (see Virtual Machine Guide) # kvm -cdrom /var/tmp/BlossomFiles/blossom-0.98.iso -m 512 -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:57 -net vde -name node-one # kvm -cdrom /var/tmp/BlossomFiles/blossom-0.98.iso -m 512 -net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:58 -net vde -name node-two Blossom—Hands-on exercises for computer forensics and security Task 1 DNS Spoofing Attack 1.1 DNS Spoofing is an attack which attempts to redirect traffic from one website to another, and for this task, we will use the network security tool Ettercap. This task also requires a local webserver to be active, such as Apache2. 1.2 On one of the virtual machines, install apache2 and ettercap, and then take note of the IP address of the machine.
