The ZMW attack is a hypothetical denial-of-service attack on the Internet's routing infrastructure, named after , , and Jia Wang, the researchers who published the original paper that considered its possibility. It relies on using targeted denial-of-service attacks on links carrying BGP connections between Autonomous Systems, in an attempt to overwhelm routers in the Default-Free Zone with routing updates, leading to disruption through forcing them to perform continuous route recalculations.

| - The ZMW attack is a hypothetical denial-of-service attack on the Internet's routing infrastructure, named after , , and Jia Wang, the researchers who published the original paper that considered its possibility. It relies on using targeted denial-of-service attacks on links carrying BGP connections between Autonomous Systems, in an attempt to overwhelm routers in the Default-Free Zone with routing updates, leading to disruption through forcing them to perform continuous route recalculations. In 2010, the security researcher published a paper considering the possibility of using a botnet to perform a ZMW attack on the Internet's entire core infrastructure, hypothetically allowing a botnet of 250,000 computers to "crash" the entire Internet.
