Wireless sensor networks becoming popular day by day due to their flexibility and convenience of use in wide variety of applications, however flexibility and increased convenience of a Wireless sensor network comes at a price and introduce new security hazards. Security is fundamental to the acceptance and use of sensor networks for numerous applications. Security solutions applicable to wired networks do not directly applicable to WSN. To develop suitable security solutions for a WSN environment, we must first understand how these networks can be attacked. This paper presented a survey on some of common routing attacks and their countermeasures in WSN.
