DNS rebinding is a technique used to fool a router into thinking the client is on the LAN side and can access the web interface (This would allow an attacker to own your system if you were foolish enough to have a default password still set)
IIRC PFSense 1.x.x was vulnerable to this type of attack as was monowall and most home routers. There is a check in 2 to alert you and it can be triggered by your own servers doing domain forwarding if you've not excluded them.
