The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis confirmed this week that it fell victim to a DNS hijack last month. The intrusion occurred on April 24 after hackers were reportedly able to manipulate router settings at a DNS vendor used by the bank. The attack may have redirected users to bogus webpages and exposed customers to phishing, malware and other attacks that potentially could have duped users into giving away their usernames or passwords. The bank is also warning users who use the same credentials on other accounts online to change their login information at those sites as well.
