Infoblox and partners describe a Chinese state-linked threat actor named "Muddling Meerkat" that has operated since 2019 by manipulating DNS and apparently influencing China’s Great Firewall (GFW). The actor demonstrates advanced DNS expertise (including generating false MX records from Chinese IPs), leverages open DNS resolvers globally, and may be conducting reconnaissance or preparing for large-scale DNS denial-of-service activity.
