contents This paper explores vulnerabilities in the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and their implications on the Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability (CIA) Triad. Through an analysis of various attacks, including DHCP Starvation, Rogue DHCP Servers, Replay Attacks, and TunnelVision exploits, the paper provides a taxonomic classification of threats, assesses risks, and proposes appropriate controls. The discussion also highlights the dangers of VPN decloaking through DHCP exploits and underscores the importance of safeguarding network infrastructures. By bringing awareness to the TunnelVision exploit, this paper aims to mitigate risks associated with these prevalent vulnerabilities.
