DNS has several vulnerabilities. 100% fool proofing of DNS is not a viable option.
I suggest the following articles for reading:

The title "Why the DNS is broken" is quite thought provoking. Technical reasons do not bother much about the intentionality.
The CricleID article in the trace and the associated comment point to managerial handles to break the DNS and they attract a host of concerns on intentionality.

Y'all might have already seen on one or other of these lists the article authored by Michael Palage and now published in CirceID.
The response from one of my favourite polemicists, Milton Mueller, is as interesting.
