This blog post describes adidnsdump, a Python tool and methodology for enumerating Active Directory-integrated DNS zones: how default AD DNS permissions can hide record details from LDAP queries, how to list child objects and resolve unknown records via DNS queries (including via a SOCKS proxy), example usage, and suggested mitigations such as adjusting ACLs or monitoring DNS query volume.
