dnsenum vs MSFPC: Which WordPress Security Scanner tool is Best in 2025?

dnsenum is a multithreaded, open-source Perl script included in Kali Linux for enumerating DNS information about a target domain. Designed for penetration testers, ethical hackers, and forensic experts, it gathers extensive data such as host addresses (A records), name servers (NS), mail servers (MX), subdomains, and non-contiguous IP blocks. Key features include Google scraping for subdomain discovery, brute-forcing subdomains, zone transfer attempts, whois queries, and reverse DNS lookups.

MSFvenom Payload Creator (MSFPC) is an open-source, user-friendly wrapper script for generating Metasploit payloads, pre-installed on Kali Linux at /usr/bin/msfpc. Designed by g0tmi1k, it automates the creation of Meterpreter and command-shell payloads for multiple platforms, including Windows, Linux, Android, and macOS. By simplifying complex msfvenom commands, MSFPC enables penetration testers, ethical hackers, and red teamers to craft customized payloads with minimal input. Supporting options like staged/stageless payloads, bind/reverse connections, and HTTP/HTTPS protocols, it streamlines payload generation for security testing.
