An old project for finding subdomains using a dictionary attack
These are tools I developed quite some time ago to discover hosts by performing
a dictionary attack using DNS queries.
These are old and not being maintained. If you’re looking for a DNS
bruteforcing tool check out the following:
An alternative to discovering subdomains via DNS Sublist3r finds subdomains via search engines
I wrote this tool back in 2002/2003 and keep it around for historic purposes
The orignial CVS repo (and others) can be found with the following command:
rsync -ai a.cvs.sourceforge.net::cvsroot/lawless/ .
compile: gcc -O2 -o brutedns brutedns.c
execute: brutedns [domain [wordfile]]
hosts is provided as an alternative network file.
I tried making a bruteforcing DNS module for Recon-NG back in 2013. But its not polished
as I lost interest.
