How it was found

The subdomain status-stage0.stripo.email was pointed at uptimerobot.com whereas it was not being used , but having Cname record as stats.uptimerobot.com . Hence anyone can takeover it.

I have parked it with an account on uptimerobot.com note : this issue is similar to report but with another subdomain

Impact

Subdomain takeover can be abused to do several things like :

Malware distribution Phishing / Spear phishing XSS Authentication bypass Legitimate mail sending and receiving on behalf of ford subdomain ... List goes on and on
