id: elasticbeanstalk-takeover info: name: ElasticBeanstalk Subdomain Takeover Detection author: philippedelteil,rotemreiss,zy9ard3,joaonevess severity: high description: ElasticBeanstalk subdomain takeover detected. A subdomain takeover occurs when an attacker gains control over a subdomain of a target domain. Typically, this happens when the subdomain has a canonical name (CNAME) in the Domain Name System (DNS), but no host is providing content for it. reference: - https://github.com/EdOverflow/can-i-take-over-xyz/issues/147 - https://twitter.com/payloadartist/status/1362035009863880711 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srKIqhj_ki8 classification: cvss-metrics: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:N cvss-score: 7.2 cwe-id: CWE-404 metadata: max-request: 1 comments: | Only CNAMEs with region specification are hijackable.
