That is a risk for did:web, just as loosing control of your domain is a risk; The did method that is most widely used on AT Protocol is did:plc, which is https://web.plc.directory/ https://web.plc.directory/
There's also did:webvh which isn't yet supported by AT Protocol, but may provide some better security, but is likely still susceptible to DNS poisoning.
However, the resolution of handle to DID happens at many different layers in the stack, so you'd have to manage to attack all of them at once. Handle resolution isn't something that typically happens on the end-users' machine, but rather on a server running a PDS, Relay or AppView. Those environments tend to be much harder to carry out DNS poisoning attacks.
