274-line Python tool scans subdomains for takeover risks

Original: 274 lines of Python that scan subdomains for takeover vulnerabilities. Intermediate level, uses dnspython and requests.

A developer has published a compact Python script, roughly 274 lines, that scans a list of subdomains for takeover vulnerabilities. Built with the dnspython and requests libraries and aimed at intermediate users, the tool takes a subs.txt file and outputs dangling DNS records worth investigating. Security practitioners are sharing it as a lightweight, open addition to subdomain takeover reconnaissance workflows.

Why now: Practical, small open-source security tools spread quickly among developers and penetration testers looking for lightweight recon utilities.
