massDNS wrapper to bruteforce and resolve the subdomains with wildcard handling support

Feature • Install • Run • Wildcard • License • Discord

shuffleDNS is a wrapper around massdns, written in go, that allows you to enumerate valid subdomains using active bruteforce, as well as resolve subdomains with wildcard handling and easy input-output support.

Based on the work on massdns project by @blechschmidt.

Features

• Simple and modular code base making it easy to contribute.
• Fast And Simple active subdomain scanning.
• Handles wildcard subdomains in a smart manner.
• Optimized for ease of use
• Stdin and stdout support for integrating in workflows

Usage

shuffledns -h

This will display help for the tool. Here are all the switches it supports.

shuffleDNS is a wrapper around massdns written in go that allows you to enumerate valid subdomains using active bruteforce as well as resolve subdomains with wildcard handling and easy input-output support.

   -duc, -disable-update-check  disable automatic shuffledns update check

OUTPUT:
   -o, -output string            File to write output to (optional)
   -j, -json                     Make output format as ndjson
   -wo, -wildcard-output string  Dump wildcard ips to output file

CONFIGURATIONS:

   -sw, -strict-wildcard  Perform wildcard check on all found subdomains
   -wt int                Number of concurrent wildcard checks (default 25)

DEBUG:
   -silent         Show only subdomains in output
   -version        Show version of shuffledns
   -v              Show Verbose output
   -nc, -no-color  Don't Use colors in output

Installation Instructions

shuffledns requires go1.19+ to install successfully. Run the following command to install the latest version:

go install -v github.com/projectdiscovery/shuffledns/cmd/shuffledns@latest

Running shuffledns

shuffledns supports two types of operations:

Subdomain resolving

To resolve a list of subdomains, you can pass the list of subdomains via the -list option.

shuffledns -d example.com -list example-subdomains.txt -r resolvers.txt

This will run the tool against subdomains in example-subdomains.txt and returns the results. The tool uses the resolvers specified with -r flag to do the resolving.

You can also pass the list of subdomains at standard input (STDIN). This allows for easy integration in automation pipelines.

subfinder -d example.com | shuffledns -d example.com -r resolvers.txt

This uses the subdomains found passively by subfinder and resolves them with shuffledns returning only the unique and valid subdomains.

Subdomain Bruteforcing

shuffledns also supports bruteforce of a target with a given wordlist. You can use the w flag to pass a wordlist which will be used to generate permutations that will be resolved using massdns.

shuffledns -d hackerone.com -w wordlist.txt -r resolvers.txt

This will run the tool against hackerone.com with the wordlist wordlist.txt. The domain bruteforce can also be done with standard input as in previous example for resolving the subdomains.

echo hackerone.com | shuffledns -w wordlist.txt -r resolvers.txt

Notes

• Wildcard filter feature works with domain (-d) input only.
• Resolving or Brute-forcing only one operation can be done at a time.
