Hijacking Bitcoin: Routing Attacks on Cryptocurrencies (2016, background): “BGP security issues Measuring and detecting routing attacks has seen extensive research, both considering BGP hijacks [48], [54], [55] and interception attacks [16].”
A Survey of Man In The Middle Attacks (2016, background): “IP hijacking occurs when a compromised or misconﬁgured BGP speaker announces to its peers that its AS can reach more spe-ciﬁc routes (long network preﬁxes) [164].”
A Survey of BGP Security Issues and Solutions (2010, background): “In some cases, prefix hijacking can be used to perform an interception attack , where the AS inspects the packets (compromising the user’s privacy) before forwarding them along to the legitimate destination [9].”
