Identity Findings

Single MX record — no redundancy
Only one MX record exists. If this mail server goes down, all inbound mail will bounce. Most production mail systems use 2+ MX records with different priorities.
💡 Add a secondary MX record with a higher priority number (e.g., priority 20) pointing to a backup mail server.
low
MTA-STS is in testing mode
The MTA-STS policy is in testing mode and not actively enforcing TLS.
💡 Switch mode to "enforce" once TLS is confirmed working for all MX hosts.
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
SPF record is valid
The SPF record is properly configured with valid syntax and within lookup limits.
pass
SPF record length OK (34 bytes)
SPF record is within safe DNS packet size limits.
pass
DKIM records are valid
DKIM records found and validated for selectors: selector1, selector2
pass
DKIM cryptographic configuration is compliant
No RFC 8301 compliance issues detected in DKIM key configuration.
pass
DKIM key strength indicates modern key management
All DKIM keys use RSA-2048+ or Ed25519, consistent with current best practices.
pass
No external DMARC report destinations
All DMARC report URIs point to the same domain — no external authorization needed.
pass
Subdomains protected (sp=quarantine)
DMARC subdomain policy enforces quarantine or reject on unauthenticated subdomain mail.
pass
MX records are valid
All MX records are properly configured.
pass
TLS-RPT report destinations are reachable
All TLS-RPT rua= URIs point to resolvable domains.
pass
Meets bulk sender authentication requirements
Domain has SPF, DKIM, and DMARC — meeting Google/Yahoo 2024 bulk sender requirements for email authentication.
pass
SMTP security checks passed
No open relay, VRFY/EXPN, or banner disclosure issues detected.
pass
SMTP RFC 5321 compliance checks passed
The mail server accepts postmaster@ and abuse@ and uses a valid FQDN in EHLO.
pass
IPv6 readiness is good
IPv6 records are present and properly configured.
pass
STARTTLS downgrade resistance is adequate
STARTTLS is supported with modern TLS and protected by MTA-STS and/or DANE.
pass
NS delegation is properly configured
All nameservers are responsive, consistent, and properly secured.
pass
DNS responses are consistent across all nameservers
All authoritative nameservers return consistent answers with proper AA flags.
pass
DNS TTL values follow best practices
All critical DNS record TTLs are within recommended ranges.
pass
DKIM2 not detected
No DKIM key record with v=2 was found across common selectors. DKIM2 is an emerging standard and not yet widely deployed.
informational
DMARC alignment: adkim=r, aspf=r
DKIM alignment is relaxed, SPF alignment is relaxed.
informational
DMARCbis np tag absent
The DMARC record does not include the np (non-existent subdomain policy) tag. Consider adding np=reject to protect non-existent subdomains under DMARCbis.
informational
Deprecated DMARCbis tags found: pct
The DMARC record contains tags deprecated in DMARCbis: pct. Consider removing these for forward compatibility.
informational
DMARCbis psd tag absent
The DMARC record does not include the psd (public suffix domain) indicator. Consider adding psd=n to explicitly identify this as an organizational domain.
informational
REQUIRETLS not advertised
The primary MX does not advertise REQUIRETLS (RFC 8689). This is an emerging standard — MTA-STS and DANE provide adequate TLS enforcement for most deployments.
informational
DANE/TLSA configured for mx.runbox.com
TLSA records found and TLS certificate is available for verification.
informational

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
Microsoft Autodiscover accessible without authentication
The Autodiscover endpoint at https://autodiscover.runbox.com/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml returns configuration data without requiring authentication. This exposes email server details to unauthenticated users.
💡 Configure the Autodiscover endpoint to require authentication before returning configuration data.
high
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.
medium
DNS ANY query returns 1 record(s)
The DNS server responds to ANY queries with 1 record(s). The low record count limits amplification risk, but ANY responses still aid reconnaissance.
💡 Configure the DNS server to refuse or minimize ANY query responses per RFC 8482.
low
Mozilla Autoconfig endpoint detected
The Autoconfig endpoint at autoconfig.runbox.com is publicly accessible and exposes mail server configuration details.
💡 Review the autoconfig XML to ensure it does not expose internal server names or sensitive configuration.
low
All MX records resolve correctly
No dangling MX records detected — all MX hostnames resolve to valid IP addresses.
pass
Explicit MX records present
The domain has explicit MX records — no implicit A-record fallback delivery.
pass
No internal information leakage detected
No non-routable IP addresses or internal references were found in public DNS records.
pass
13 subdomain(s) discovered for runbox.com
Subdomains were enumerated via Certificate Transparency logs, DNS wordlist brute-forcing, and DNS record analysis.
informational
0 certificate(s) found in CT logs
Certificate Transparency logs contain 0 certificate(s) for runbox.com and its subdomains. Each certificate reveals subdomain names.
informational
Wildcard DNS record detected
A wildcard DNS record exists for *.runbox.com, resolving to 185.226.149.25. Wildcard records make subdomain brute-forcing less effective but may mask misconfigurations.
informational
1 email SRV record(s) found
Email service SRV records expose mail server configuration for automatic client setup.
informational
DNSSEC is enabled
DNSKEY and/or DS records are present, indicating DNSSEC is configured.

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: quarantine
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: quarantine
⚠️ DKIM signature is missing. DMARC relies on DKIM to verify email integrity and prevent tampering. Without DKIM, DMARC alignment will fail for cryptographic verification.
