ShuffleDNS is a command-line subdomain enumeration tool.
Written in Go and built as a wrapper around massdns, it’s aimed at reconnaissance workflows where you need to validate discovered subdomains or actively brute-force new ones against target domains. The project is designed for high-volume DNS processing, supports straightforward pipeline integration, and includes logic to reduce noisy results caused by wildcard DNS records.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Enumerates valid subdomains using active brute-force against a supplied wordlist.
- Resolves existing subdomain lists and returns unique valid results.
- Handles wildcard DNS intelligently, including multi-level wildcard detection.
- Supports separate execution modes for bruteforce, resolve, and filter operations.
- Accepts input from files or standard input and fits neatly into automation pipelines.
- Offers NDJSON output, file output, retry controls, concurrency settings, and optional custom massdns commands.
