Improper Access Control - Generic
Hi Security Team, Found that DNS record of `engineering.udemy.com` domain was pointing to inactive ghost.io instance. So when we visit https://engineering.udemy.com we will be notified that site doesn't exist. {F310092} ``` $ host engineering.udemy.com engineering.udemy.com is an alias for udemy-engineering-blog.ghost.io. udemy-engineering-blog.ghost.io has address 141.101.114.35 udemy-engineering-blog.ghost.io has address 141.101.115.35 udemy-engineering-blog.ghost.io has address 190.93.244.35 udemy-engineering-blog.ghost.io has address 190.93.245.35 udemy-engineering-blog.ghost.io has address 190.93.246.35 ``` So I've registered PRO account for 20$/month on ghost.org and created publication with the name `udemy-engineering-blog`, as a next step I configured custom DNS record for my publication. {F310093} CNAME record was already configured, so I could successfully pass validation and even have valid SSL certificate and now can serve content on behalf of `engineering.udemy.com` https://engineering.udemy.com/ {F310094} ## Impact Attacker is able to serve any content on behalf of `engineering.udemy.com` domain
