Pull Request Checklist

Is this in reference to an existing issue?

General

  • Update Changelog following the conventions laid out here

  • Update README with any necessary configuration snippets

  • Binstubs are created if needed

  • RuboCop passes

  • Existing tests pass

New Plugins

  • Tests

  • Add the plugin to the README

  • Does it have a complete header as outlined here

Purpose

Our idea was twofold: a healtcheck against authoritative servers

  1. check consistency between whois and dig NS results
  2. test connectivity over TCP and UDP to authoritative nameservers
  3. test AXFR from authoritative nameservers (test fails if AXFR is successful)
  4. check SOA serial number across authoritative and primary (i.e. a record present in a dig SOA query but not in a dig NS query)

Known Compatibility Issues

Create a check to test for zone transfers #27
[CVE-2017-8418] sensu-plugins/community#77
[CVE-2017-17042] sensu-plugins/community#97

Overall looks good a few comments.

Also it looks like the build is failing with ruby 2.1. As ruby 2.1 is EOL if we want to we can drop support for it (must be called out in the changelog and I will version it as a major releases) or we can look into what causes the failure I am certain its dependency related and would vote for just dropping support.

Resolv::DNS.new.getresources(config[:domain], Resolv::DNS::Resource::IN::NS).map { |e| e.name.to_s }

Can we use a better name? check_nss made me think for a minute you were talking about mozilla's Network Security Services Library

Also I feel like we can combine the two checks and just pass in whether we want udp or tcp.

@majormoses, I agree with you - these methods have the same checking logic.
I will merge them.

Overall looks good just a few comments/updates and we should be good.

DNS is default served over therefore I think that defaulting to false makes more sense.


success << "Resolved DNS #{ns}(#{ip}) uses #{use_tcp ? 'tcp' : 'udp'}"
rescue StandardError
errors << "Resolved DNS #{ns}(#{ip}) doesn't use #{use_tcp ? 'tcp' : 'udp'}"

rather than using the same conditional again just assign it once out of the rescue block and use it for both inside the begin and rescue.

in the gemspec you say it must be 2.2+ but here you have < 2.1 I think this should be < 2.2 here.
