## **Basic Information**
The Domain Name Systems (DNS) is the phonebook of the Internet. Humans access information online through domain names, like nytimes.com or espn.com. Web browsers interact through Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. DNS translates domain names to [IP addresses](https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/dns/glossary/what-is-my-ip-address/) so browsers can load Internet resources.\
From [here](https://www.cloudflare.com/learning/dns/what-is-dns/).
**Default port:** 53
```
PORT STATE SERVICE REASON
53/tcp open domain Microsoft DNS 6.1.7601 (1DB15D39) (Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1)
5353/udp open zeroconf udp-response
53/udp open domain Microsoft DNS 6.1.7601 (1DB15D39) (Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1)
```
### Different DNS Servers
Information from [https://academy.hackthebox.com/module/112/section/1069](https://academy.hackthebox.com/module/112/section/1069)
| **Server Type** | **Description** |
| ------------------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `DNS Root Server` | The root servers of the DNS are responsible for the top-level domains (`TLD`). As the last instance, they are only requested if the name server does not respond. Thus, a root server is a central interface between users and content on the Internet, as it links domain and IP address. The [Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers](https://www.icann.org/) (`ICANN`) coordinates the work of the root name servers. There are `13` such root servers around the globe. |
| `Authoritative Nameserver` | Authoritative name servers hold authority for a particular zone. They only answer queries from their area of responsibility, and their information is binding. If an authoritative name server cannot answer a client's query, the root name server takes over at that point. |
| `Non-authoritative Nameserver` | Non-authoritative name servers are not responsible for a particular DNS zone. Instead, they collect information on specific DNS zones themselves, which is done using recursive or iterative DNS querying. |
| `Caching DNS Server` | Caching DNS servers cache information from other name servers for a specified period. The authoritative name server determines the duration of this storage. |
| `Forwarding Server` | Forwarding servers perform only one function: they forward DNS queries to another DNS server. |
| `Resolver` | Resolvers are not authoritative DNS servers but perform name resolution locally in the computer or router. |
## Enumeration
### **Banner Grabbing**
DNS does not have a "banner" to grab. The closest equivalent is a magic query for `version.bind. CHAOS TXT` which will work on most BIND nameservers.\
You can perform this query using `dig`:
```bash
dig version.bind CHAOS TXT @DNS
```
If that does not work you can use fingerprinting techniques to determine the remote server's version -- the [`fpdns`](https://github.com/kirei/fpdns) tool is one option for that, but there are others.
You can grab the banner also with a **nmap** script:
```
--script dns-nsid
```
### **Any record**
The record **ANY** will ask the DNS server to **return** all the available **entries** that **it is willing to disclose**.
```bash
dig any victim.com @<DNS_IP>
```
### **Zone Transfer**
This procedure is abbreviated `Asynchronous Full Transfer Zone` (`AXFR`).
```bash
dig axfr @<DNS_IP> #Try zone transfer without domain
dig axfr @<DNS_IP> <DOMAIN> #Try zone transfer guessing the domain
fierce --domain <DOMAIN> --dns-servers <DNS_IP> #Will try toperform a zone transfer against every authoritative name server and if this doesn'twork, will launch a dictionary attack
```
### More info
```bash
dig ANY @<DNS_IP> <DOMAIN> #Any information
dig A @<DNS_IP> <DOMAIN> #Regular DNS request
dig AAAA @<DNS_IP> <DOMAIN> #IPv6 DNS request
dig TXT @<DNS_IP> <DOMAIN> #Information
dig MX @<DNS_IP> <DOMAIN> #Emails related
dig NS @<DNS_IP> <DOMAIN> #DNS that resolves that name
dig -x 192.168.0.2 @<DNS_IP> #Reverse lookup
dig -x 2a00:1450:400c:c06::93 @<DNS_IP> #reverse IPv6 lookup
#Use [-p PORT] or -6 (to use ivp6 address of dns)
```
#### Using nslookup
```bash
nslookup
> SERVER <IP_DNS> #Select dns server
> 127.0.0.1 #Reverse lookup of 127.0.0.1, maybe...
> <IP_MACHINE> #Reverse lookup of a machine, maybe...
```
### Useful metasploit modules
```bash
auxiliary/gather/enum_dns #Perform enumeration actions
```
### Useful nmap scripts
```bash
#Perform enumeration actions
nmap -n --script "(default and *dns*) or fcrdns or dns-srv-enum or dns-random-txid or dns-random-srcport" <IP>
```
### DNS - Reverse BF
```bash
dnsrecon -r 127.0.0.0/24 -n <IP_DNS> #DNS reverse of all of the addresses
dnsrecon -r 127.0.1.0/24 -n <IP_DNS> #DNS reverse of all of the addresses
dnsrecon -r <IP_DNS>/24 -n <IP_DNS> #DNS reverse of all of the addresses
dnsrecon -d active.htb -a -n <IP_DNS> #Zone transfer
```
{% hint style="info" %}
If you are able to find subdomains resolving to internal IP-addresses, you should try to perform a reverse dns BF to the NSs of the domain asking for that IP range.
{% endhint %}
Another tool to do so: [https://github.com/amine7536/reverse-scan](https://github.com/amine7536/reverse-scan)
You can query reverse IP ranges to [https://bgp.he.net/net/205.166.76.0/24#\_dns](https://bgp.he.net/net/205.166.76.0/24#\_dns) (this tool is also helpful with BGP).
### DNS - Subdomains BF
```bash
dnsenum --dnsserver <IP_DNS> --enum -p 0 -s 0 -o subdomains.txt -f subdomains-1000.txt <DOMAIN>
dnsrecon -D subdomains-1000.txt -d <DOMAIN> -n <IP_DNS>
dnscan -d <domain> -r -w subdomains-1000.txt #Bruteforce subdomains in recursive way, https://github.com/rbsec/dnscan
```
### Active Directory servers
```
dig -t _gc._tcp.lab.domain.com
dig -t _ldap._tcp.lab.domain.com
dig -t _kerberos._tcp.lab.domain.com
dig -t _kpasswd._tcp.lab.domain.com
nmap --script dns-srv-enum --script-args "dns-srv-enum.domain='domain.com'"
```
### DNSSec
```bash
#Query paypal subdomains to ns3.isc-sns.info
nmap -sSU -p53 --script dns-nsec-enum --script-args dns-nsec-enum.domains=paypal.com ns3.isc-sns.info
```
### IPv6
Brute force using "AAAA" requests to gather IPv6 of the subdomains.
```bash
dnsdict6 -s -t <domain>
```
Bruteforce reverse DNS in using IPv6 addresses
```bash
dnsrevenum6 pri.authdns.ripe.net 2001:67c:2e8::/48 #Will use the dns pri.authdns.ripe.net
```
### DNS Recursion DDoS
If **DNS recursion is enabled**, an attacker could **spoof** the **origin** on the UDP packet in order to make the **DNS send the response to the victim server**. An attacker could abuse **ANY** or **DNSSEC** record types as they use to have the bigger responses.\
The way to **check** if a DNS supports **recursion** is to query a domain name and **check** if the **flag "ra"** (_recursion available_) is in the response:
```bash
dig google.com A @<IP>
```
**Non available**:

### Mail to nonexistent account
From book: Network Security Assessment (3rd edition)
Simply sending an email message to a nonexistent address at a target domain often reveals useful internal network information through a _nondelivery notification_ (NDN).
