The vast majority of LANs do not do anything to prevent rogue DHCP servers.
Just to be clear, a “DHCP server” is a piece of software which can run anywhere (including a phone). Eg, if your friend’s phone has some malware and you let them use the wifi at your house, someone could be automatically doing this attack against your laptop while they’re there.
If some random user is able to configure themselves as DHCP, NOONE should be connected to that insecure trash.

Seems like quite an amateur move to run a public network without filtering everyrhing, including dhcp. Again; insecure trash.
Yes, I know there is a lot of insecure trash out there. The commonality doesn’t magically make it not insecure trash.
