Dnsruby provides advanced options like DNSSEC in its data format
and is a current and well supported library.
The infrastructure services - resolver, server, etc, were designed
for a standalone configuration, and carry entirely too much weight
and redundancy to implement for this context. Instead of porting
over their native resolver, update the Net::DNS subclassed Rex
Resolver to use Dnsruby data formats and method calls.
Update the Msf namespace infrastructure mixins and native server
module with new method calls and workarounds for some instance
variables having only readers without writers. Implement the Rex
ServerManager to start and stop the DNS service adding relevant
alias methods to the Rex::Proto::DNS::Server class.
Rex services are designed to be modular and lightweight, as well
as implement the sockets, threads, and other low-level interfaces.
Dnsruby's operations classes implement their own threading and
socket semantics, and do not fit with the modular mixin workflow
used throughout Framework. So while the updated resolver can be
seen as adding rubber to the tire fire, converting to dnsruby's
native classes for resolvers, servers, and caches, would be more
like adding oxy acetylene and heavy metals.
Testing:
Internal tests for resolution of different record types locally
and over pivot sessions.
This
* uses ternary operators
* uses an `RPORT` option shortcut
* removes the `xml_payload` variable and instead more explicitly uses the method directly
* Uses `OptFloat` for the timeout option to allow partial seconds
This updates the module to pass:
* msftidy
* Ruby style guidelines
* Proper usage of Metasploit API
* Mostly other cosmetic fixes
A documentation is also added.
