BadDNS

Check subdomains for subdomain takeovers and other DNS tomfoolery

Black License tests codecov Pypi Downloads

BadDNS is a standalone tool and BBOT module for detecting domain/subdomain takeovers of all kinds, including other DNS issues like NSEC walks and Subdomain Takeovers.

Check out the introductory blog on the BLS substack!

Installation

We have a pypi package, so you can just do pip install baddns to make use of the library.

Or use pipx: pipx install git+https://github.com/blacklanternsecurity/baddns

Usage

After installing with pip, you can just run baddns from the command line.

usage: baddns [-h] [-n CUSTOM_NAMESERVERS] [-c CUSTOM_SIGNATURES] [-l] [-s] [-m MODULES] [-d] [target]

Check subdomains for subdomain takeovers and other DNS tomfoolery

positional arguments:
  target                subdomain to analyze

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -n CUSTOM_NAMESERVERS, --custom-nameservers CUSTOM_NAMESERVERS
                        Provide a list of custom nameservers separated by comma.
