Add Rex::Proto::DNS and Rex::Proto::DNS::Constants namespaces
Create Rex::Proto::DNS::Resolver from Net::DNS::Resolver
Create Rex::Proto::DNS::Server and Rex::Proto::DNS::Server::Cache
Constants -
A Rex::Socket style MATCH_HOSTNAME regex has been added to
help validate DNS names.
Resolver -
Based off of old work creating Rex socket overrides in the
Net::DNS::Resolver as well as allowing for proxying and making
automatic adjustments to use TCP for proxied connections. This
resolver pivots with MSF, uses proxies, and doesnt pull in the
default /etc/resolv.conf information which can lead to info leak.
Automatically sends Net::DNS::Packet and Resolv::DNS::Message
objects to the appropriate nameservers.
TODO: Review for potential low level concurrent resolution impl.
Server::Cache -
Threadsafe wrapper around a Hash which holds Net::DNS::RR keys
with Time.to_i values for counting eviction/stale time without
altering the original record.
Takes records with a TTL of < 1 as static entries which are not
flushed or pruned by the monitor thread.
Server -
A standard Rex level server allowing for client connections with
TCP and UDP listeners. Provides common framework for handling the
different transports by creating a "client" type object as a Rex
UDP socket and passing it back to the dispatch/sender methods.
This server can host listeners on remote pivot targets since it
utilizes Rex sockets, and should not leak internal information
from the resolver as easily either.
Can be configured with a custom resolver regardless of its own
listener configuration (UDP/TCP mix is fine), and carries a
threadsafe wrapper for swapping the resolvers nameservers under
a Mutex.synchronize. Since listeners and resolvers can pivot,
a compromised host in one environment can serve DNS information
obtained by the resolver pivoting through a completely different
target.
The server takes blocks for dispatch and send functions which
when defined, will intercept the standard execution flow which is
to parse the request, check the cache for corresponding records,
then forward the remaining questions in a request via the resolver,
and build + send a response back to the client.
The accessors for dispatch and send, resolver, and cache are
accessible at runtime, though it is likely unsafe to replace the
cache and resolver while they are accessed from other threads.
-----
Testing:
Initial testing performed in IRB/Pry generating manual requests.
Subsequent checks performed using the running server as the sys
resolver.
Additional testing is needed - the default dispatch_request
behavior may not be correct (i need to check the RFCs for this) as
it handles multiple questions for A records. This should be tuned
to be RFC compliant, with inheriting classes changing behavior as
needed. We also need to ensure that we're not leaking our own DNS
information to our targets, so all sorts of abuse is in order.
-----
TODO:
Create Msf::Exploit::DNS namespace utilizing this functionality.
- Move the threaded enum_dns work, as well as work from 6187,
into the namespace
- Review existing modules for functional overlap and move here
as needed. This should be done in separate commits/PRs.
Create specific DNS servers for spoofing, exploit delivery, and
finally handling DNS tunnels (the primary reason for this work).
Write spec
- Convince/coerce a friendly soul in the community to handle
spec for this fiasco while building further functionality.
