    DNS poisoning

    Explanation:

    DNS is a server service that verifies or resolves an IP address to a site or domain name. It's services is made available with a dhcp request from a client system, providing the ip address of the DNS server. The DNS server has the records of domain name linked to their individual ip addresses.

    When an attacker wants a client to visit his site without knowing the site is not genuine, he gains access to the dns server and changes the information or poisons the entries of the server. So if the client tries to access that site, it takes him to the attackers site. This is called DNS poisoning.
