aren't Ethernet frames CRC'd? Are there other checksums down the call stack, or up the stack at the other end, that would reject such bit flips in the raw data?

- quenix 6y agoYes, Ethernet frames are CRC'd but some (most?) memory isn't. The web address is bit-flipped in memory, and then the network stack generates a valid Ethernet frame using the already corrupted address.
