DANGLEGEDDONDNS survival system

[ IMPROVEMENTS ]

What’s coming
next.

Danglegeddon is a scoped, read-only checker today. These are the goals that will widen what it can see — without ever claiming resources or probing your services.

In progress

Actively being built.

Larger batch scans

Queue more hostnames per scan and work through them in batches instead of hitting the current eight-name limit.

Up next

Planned for the next releases.

Wildcard detection for your zone

Recognise wildcard records in your own DNS so catch-all answers don’t hide — or fake — dangling hostnames. Provider-side wildcards are already handled.

Sub-zone delegation checks

Extend authoritative checks to delegated subdomains inside an imported zone, not just the apex.

Exploring

Ideas we’re researching.

Scheduled re-scans

Re-check a perimeter on a schedule and flag records that newly start pointing into the void.

Abandoned IP detection

Spot A/AAAA records pointing at released cloud IP ranges — a harder signal that DNS alone can’t confirm.

Shipped

Live in the scanner now.

Zone file import

Upload or paste a BIND zone export and every CNAME, MX, NS and SRV target is checked. Gated behind an authorization and data-exposure acknowledgement.

Authoritative delegation checks

Asks the registry and each nameserver directly over TCP — catching lame delegations, unresolvable nameservers, NS mismatches and stale serials.

Provider fingerprints

Recognises 40+ hosting, DNS and mail platforms from target hostnames, and won’t report a wildcard platform like GitHub Pages or Heroku as safely resolving.

Shareable reports

A printable report page with a link you can share. The report lives in the link itself — nothing is stored on our servers.
