Description

Discussed in https://github.com/PhonePe/mantis/discussions/41

Originally posted by 0xbharath July 25, 2024
The idea behind Mantis is to assist Product Security Engineers by leveraging the knowledge that they are privy to in the org such as access to namesevers to get a complete list of domains/subdomains.

Atm, Mantis has support for Route53 and Cloudflare nameservers. We need contributions to add support for more nameservers. Some common nameservers include:

Managed Nameservers

  • Namecheap
  • Godaddy
  • Gandi
  • Azure DNS Service
  • Porkbun
  • Google Cloud DNS
  • NameSilo

Non-managed Nameservers

  • Bind
  • PowerDNS

Start by reviewing the existing Route53 and Cloudflare nameserver support and the discussion linked in the issue. Choose a specific nameserver from the list, determine how its domains and subdomains should be discovered, and verify that Mantis can include those results alongside its current providers.
