SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires testssl.sh, sslyze, dig, curl, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill identifies potential security vulnerabilities in TLS/SSL and DNS configurations, aiding in the assessment of web application security.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • TLS/SSL Audit: Detects issues like missing HSTS, weak cipher suites, and expired certificates.
  • DNS Security: Identifies misconfigurations such as missing SPF/DKIM/DMARC records, DNS Zone Transfers, and dangling CNAMEs.
  • Use Case: Use this Skill during web application reconnaissance to uncover infrastructure weaknesses and misconfigurations that could lead to security breaches.

Quick Start

Run the 'hunt-tls-network' skill on the target domain to scan for TLS/SSL and DNS misconfigurations.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check for TLS/SSL and DNS misconfigurations during a security assessment?

To check for TLS/SSL and DNS misconfigurations, you can scan a target domain to detect weak cipher suites, missing HSTS, expired certificates, and absent SPF/DKIM/DMARC records using tools like testssl.sh, sslyze, dig, and curl.

What is the best way to detect missing SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records in DNS?

The best way to detect missing SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records is to perform a DNS security scan using dig and curl, which identifies email authentication misconfigurations and dangling CNAMEs during web application reconnaissance.

Can I use testssl.sh and sslyze to find expired certificates and weak cipher suites?

Yes, you can use testssl.sh and sslyze to perform a TLS/SSL audit that detects expired certificates, weak cipher suites, and missing HSTS headers for comprehensive web application penetration testing.

Do I need to install dig and curl to scan for DNS zone transfers and TLS vulnerabilities?

Yes, you need dig and curl installed, as they are required dependencies for DNS analysis and HTTP probing, alongside testssl.sh and sslyze for full TLS/SSL vulnerability detection and security assessment.

When should I run a DNS and TLS/SSL audit during penetration testing?

You should run a DNS and TLS/SSL audit during the reconnaissance phase of penetration testing to uncover infrastructure weaknesses, missing security headers, and misconfigurations that could lead to security breaches.

What vulnerabilities does a TLS/SSL and DNS security scan identify?

A TLS/SSL and DNS security scan identifies vulnerabilities including missing HSTS, weak cipher suites, expired certificates, missing SPF/DKIM/DMARC records, DNS Zone Transfers, and dangling CNAMEs in web applications.
