Part of a series on BGP-related disruptions, complementing earlier content on human error and malicious route hijacking. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What kinds of BGP implementation bugs have caused real internet outages? BGP implementation bugs that have caused internet outages include malformed AS paths and mishandled transitive attributes. These are not purely historical — similar issues have been observed in the wild as recently as 2023, with BGP path attribute error handling remaining a recurring source of disruption across different router implementations. _Network engineers tracking BGP reliability incidents find coverage like this on daily.dev alongside broader infrastructure news._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [A closer look at a BGP anomaly in Venezuela](https://daily.dev/posts/a-closer-look-at-a-bgp-anomaly-in-venezuela-wjsdlj7zk) · Cloudflare · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Routing Information in Iran](https://daily.dev/posts/routing-information-in-iran-hvu0wyakw) · Hacker News · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [When an Internet Outage Teaches Us a Bigger Lesson](https://daily.dev/posts/when-an-internet-outage-teaches-us-a-bigger-lesson-dvhxprary) · C\# Corner · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Why Does the Internet Keep Breaking?
