**A dangling record is a vulnerability issue.** So for your domains that are in your DNS service and are expired/not being used anymore, the monitoring system will print out this message for each record:
```shell
A record:
VULNERABILITY ISSUE:
This domain doesn't exist anymore.
Please delete all records pointing for this domain.
```
