Ubiquiti sub-domain takeovers

On February 6 2017, a bug bounty hunter called madrobot published a report about domain takeover in Ubiquiti.

madrobot discovered that one of Ubiquiti's subdomains was pointing to the following Google IP address:

    216.58.203.243    moderator.ubnt.com
    216.58.203.243    ghs.google.com
    216.58.203.243    ghs.l.google.com

The DNS register for the sub-domain was illustrated in the follow-up evidence, as shown in the following screenshot:

So, when the user entered the sub-domain moderator.ubnt.com from the web browser, it showed Google's page instead, as shown in the following screenshot:

As we can see, any user can claim the sub-domain for themselves and use it to damage Ubiquiti.
