Vulnerability Details
#Summary: The subdomain ██████ had an CNAME record pointing to an unclaimed ███████ webservice. This is a high severity security issue because an attacker can register the subdomain on ███ and therefore can own the subdomain █████████. #Description: The dangling CNAME record of █████████ is pointing to █████.███████ which was not claimed by you. I registered a service with this name and therefore was able to takeover the subdomain. Every attacker doing this has afterwards full control over the contents served on this subdomain. #Subdomain Affected: ██████████ #Proof Of Concept: I have uploaded a simple subdomain takeover PoC on http://███████/████████ # Step-by-step Reproduction Instructions 1. Open ██████ and register for web app which is under market place. I have used ██████ (See: ████) 2. After registering, go to Custom Domains which will be available under settings. (See: ████) 3. In here, add custom domain i have used █████████ (See: █████) 4. After that upload any PoC you want to upload. I have used ████ which has my PoC. (See: ███████) #Suggested Mitigation/Remediation Actions 1. Remove the dangling CNAME record for █████ 2. Claim it back in ███████ portal after I release it #Reference Some hackerone reports #661751 #325336 #NOTE: I have claimed the subdomain http://█████████ at the current moment to keep it safe from malicious users. Whenever you want i will release ██████.███. Afterwards you can claim it back. ## Impact Subdomain takeover is abused for several purposes: 1. Malware distribution 2. Phishing / Spear phishing 3. XSS
