Identity Findings

SPF exceeds 10-lookup limit (11 lookups)
RFC 7208 limits SPF to 10 DNS lookups. Exceeding this causes PermError and SPF failures.
💡 Flatten your SPF record by replacing includes with direct ip4/ip6 mechanisms.
high
No MTA-STS record found
Without MTA-STS, mail transport encryption cannot be enforced and is vulnerable to downgrade attacks.
💡 Publish a _mta-sts TXT record and host a policy file at https://mta-sts.offerup.com/.well-known/mta-sts.txt
medium
STARTTLS without MTA-STS or DANE protection
STARTTLS alone is vulnerable to downgrade attacks. Neither MTA-STS nor DANE is configured to enforce encryption.
💡 Deploy MTA-STS and/or DANE to protect against STARTTLS stripping attacks.
medium
No CAA records found
No CAA records are configured. Any certificate authority can issue certificates for this domain.
💡 Add CAA records to restrict certificate issuance. Example: 0 issue "letsencrypt.org"
medium
No TLS-RPT record found
Without TLS-RPT, you will not receive reports about TLS negotiation failures.
💡 Publish a _smtp._tls TXT record (e.g. "v=TLSRPTv1; rua=mailto:tls-reports@offerup.com").
low
ARC support not detected
No evidence of ARC (Authenticated Received Chain) support on MX servers. Forwarded messages may lose authentication.
💡 Consider enabling ARC signing on your mail servers to preserve authentication through forwarding.
low
Shared IP 170.10.128.221 used by multiple MX servers
The IP 170.10.128.221 is shared across 2 MX hostnames, reducing redundancy.

low
Shared IP 170.10.128.141 used by multiple MX servers
The IP 170.10.128.141 is shared across 2 MX hostnames, reducing redundancy.
💡 Use unique IP addresses for each MX server for better redundancy.
low

💡 Use unique IP addresses for each MX server for better redundancy.
low
Very low TTL on TXT records: 99s
24 TXT records have a TTL of 99s or less (below 300s).
💡 Increase the TTL to at least 300 seconds unless frequent changes are expected.
low
Very low TTL on SPF record: 99s
The SPF record has a TTL of 99s or less (below 300s).
💡 Increase the TTL to at least 300 seconds unless frequent changes are expected.
low
Very low TTL on DMARC record: 279s
The DMARC record has a TTL of 279s or less (below 300s).
💡 Increase the TTL to at least 300 seconds unless frequent changes are expected.
low
NS TTL mismatch between parent and authoritative zone
The NS record TTL in the parent zone (~7179s) differs significantly from the authoritative zone (~86400s).
💡 Align NS record TTLs between the parent zone delegation and the authoritative zone.

Attack Surface Findings

NSEC records enable zone walking
The domain uses NSEC records for DNSSEC authenticated denial of existence. NSEC records can be walked to enumerate all names in the zone, effectively disclosing the entire zone contents.
💡 Switch from NSEC to NSEC3 with opt-out to prevent zone enumeration. Use NSEC3 with a random salt and sufficient iterations.
high
Domain enumerability: high
The domain is highly enumerable. Zone transfers, NSEC zone walking, or a combination of factors make it easy to discover all DNS records.
💡 Restrict zone transfers, use NSEC3 instead of NSEC, consider wildcard certificates to reduce CT log exposure, and implement rate limiting on DNS queries.
high
Non-responsive IP for support.offerup.com: 184.168.221.14
The subdomain support.offerup.com resolves to 184.168.221.14 which is not responding on ports 80 or 443. This may indicate a decommissioned server.
💡 Verify the server at 184.168.221.14 is operational or remove the DNS record for support.offerup.com.
medium
NSEC used instead of NSEC3 (zone enumeration possible)
The domain uses NSEC records for authenticated denial of existence. NSEC allows zone walking.
💡 Migrate from NSEC to NSEC3 to prevent zone enumeration.

Dependency Chains

DMARC Authentication Chain (SPF)
DMARC uses SPF to verify that emails come from authorized servers
SPF Record SPF record found and configured DMARC Policy DMARC policy: reject
DMARC Authentication Chain (DKIM)
DMARC uses DKIM to verify that emails have not been tampered with
DKIM Signature DKIM signature missing DMARC Policy DMARC policy: reject
⚠️ DKIM signature is missing. DMARC relies on DKIM to verify email integrity and prevent tampering. Without DKIM, DMARC alignment will fail for cryptographic verification.

Enforced Encryption Chain
MTA-STS enforces TLS encryption to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks
TLS Support Mail servers support TLS encryption MTA-STS Policy MTA-STS not configured
⚠️ MTA-STS policy is missing. Even with TLS support, you lack the enforcement layer that prevents attackers from stripping encryption (downgrade attacks).
Brand Identity Chain
BIMI displays your logo in email clients, but requires DMARC enforcement
DMARC Enforcement DMARC policy: reject BIMI Record BIMI not configured
⚠️ BIMI record is missing. Even with DMARC enforcement, you need to configure BIMI to display your brand logo in supported email clients.
TLS Monitoring Chain
TLS-RPT provides reports about TLS connection failures
TLS Support Mail servers support TLS encryption TLS-RPT Reporting TLS-RPT not configured
⚠️ TLS-RPT is not configured. Without TLS reporting, you have no visibility into TLS connection failures that may be impacting email delivery.
