Dangling DNS Records leading to Sub-domain Takeover on api.techprep.fb.com!

Dangling DNS Records on api.techprep.fb.com - $500!

Read proper write-up here: https://publish.whoisbinit.me/subdomain-takeover-on-api-techprep-fb-com-through-aws-elastic-beanstalk

I have included my script in another file (main.sh), which I used in discovering this vulnerability.

I didn't do any form of manual work in finding this vulnerability, and my workflow was fully automated with Bash scripting.

I have shortened my actual script, and only included the part which helped me in finding this vulnerability in the main.sh file.

Hello @pdelteil,

I think you tried to create an application at Elastic Beanstalk, so you weren't able to define a custom URL. Can you once try creating an environment?

I just tried, and I'm still able to define custom URLs without any random strings added to the URL.

Creating an environment!

Here is an image showing what I did to verify just now!

If you have any further queries, please let me know!

Thanks,
Binit

Thank you for your quick answer. There's something odd, that dialog appeared when I created the second environment and not while creating the first.
