You missed the point. The original question was how to dump ALL of the zones a name server hosts. Answer-not possible except by brute forcing all name spaces. -----Original Message----- From: Brad Bemis [mailto:bradleybat_private] Sent: Sunday, June 09, 2002 1:45 PM To: Vlad; 'Short_Circut' Cc: vuln-devat_private Subject: RE: DNS zone transfer It looks to me as though they are blocking TCP/53 (note UDP/53 is used for queries and TCP/53 is used for the zone transfer). There could also be a split-DNS implementation that hinders your efforts ( restricting the number and type of records that you might be able to locate on the externally accessible name server)... They may also have the DNS tree set up so that only qualified name servers can conduct zone transfer. These are all common best practices when protecting DNS servers. Have you looked at secondary DNS servers associated with this target? Many times, a secondary DNS server is forgotten about... Since they use the simple name structure of ns1.wustl.edu, you could script query attempts against a range of name servers using an nsx loop... Read in the results and if they do not match a zone transfer denial (i.e. "*** Can't list domain domain.com: Query refused"), you have a target... Just a few ideas... There are several more advanced methods that could also be used, but they do not involve passive information gathering ;-) -----Original Message----- From: Vlad [mailto:progmanat_private] Sent: Sunday, June 09, 2002 1:02 AM To: 'Short_Circut' Cc: vuln-devat_private Subject: RE: DNS zone transfer First of all thanks for the answer, but I must say that I've already tried all that. Using nslookup returns the following: ===================================== > ls -d domain.com [[ns.domain.com]] *** Can't list domain domain.com: Query refused > > domain.com domain.com nameserver = ns.domain.com .... .... domain.com primary name server = ns1.domain.com responsible mail addr = p serial = 1234567890 refresh = 3600 (1 hour) retry = 600 (10 mins) expire = 86400 (1 day) default TTL = 3600 (1 hour) ns.domain.com internet address = x.x.x.x ===================================== The request to enumerate all domain records (first ex.) returns "Query refused". A resolve request (second ex.) return what seems like all nameserver records for that domain (type = ALL in nslookup). That's nice but not as important as the other records the server contains , they are the ones I'm after.
