info: name: DNS Zone Transfer Check author: nukunga[SungHyunJeon] severity: medium description: | Ensure DNS zone transfers are restricted by verifying that the SecureSecondaries registry value is set to 2 for all active zones. Unrestricted zone transfers can expose sensitive domain information, helping attackers map the network infrastructure. impact: | If DNS zone transfers are not properly restricted, attackers could access domain and zone details, which may aid in planning and launching further attacks against the network infrastructure. remediation: | Configure DNS zone transfer restrictions by: - Disabling zone transfers entirely, or - Restricting transfers to designated servers by setting the SecureSecondaries registry value to 2. reference: - https://isms.kisa.or.kr/main/csap/notice/?boardId=bbs_0000000000000004&mode=view&cntId=85 tags: code,windows-audit,kisa,dns,zone-transfer
