There have been several widespread defacements reported to us today. It appears their DNS name server entries all point to the same thing as seen below: ups.com. 85621 IN NS ns1.yumurtakabugu.com. Here are a few examples of the sites so far: ups.com The one commonality is they all appear to be all registered via ascio.com More details as we learn more.

As of 5:25 pm CDT, CenturyLink/Qwest DNS servers 205.171.3.65 and 205.171.2.65 appear to be poisoned for ups.com, theregister.co.uk, acer.com = 68.68.20.BAD.
My machines using OpenDNS are seeing the proper addresses. |

At 1536 Pacific, Time Warner was also showing the 68.68.20.BAD for UPS and National Geographic

Perhaps this will provide a little DNSSEC motivation.

how would DNSSEC help? If your Registrar is hacked, what does DNSSEC have to do with it? That's all about validating records - but if the bad guys actually own the "true" records, they can do what they want can't they?

Ok, sems to be a little confusion here.
I don't think the OP was suggesting the registry was hacked, as otherwise nobody would have 'good' records. Consequently, DNSSEC would help this problem, as that's it's primary function. |

The Register now writes that NatNames was actually hacked, http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/09/05/dns_hijack_service_updated/
"It appears that the turkish attackers managed to hack into the DNS panel of NetNames using a SQL injection and modify the configuration of arbitrary sites, to use their own DNS (ns1​.yumur​tak​abugu​.com and ns2​.yumur​tak​abugu​.com) and redirect those websites to a defaced page." |
