dnsx

Multi-purpose DNS toolkit for bulk resolving, record querying, wildcard filtering and subdomain brute-forcing.

freeactiveosscli

field note

Resolving names only queries public resolvers, but brute-force mode can hit the target's authoritative nameservers at scale. Pipe subfinder output into it to keep only live hosts.

opsec warning

This tool is active: it interacts directly with the target's infrastructure or may otherwise reveal your interest to the target. Use a research environment and weigh the risk before running it.
