Cybercriminal Group 'Hazy Hawk' Exploits DNS Misconfigurations to Hijack Trusted Domains

A cybercriminal group named 'Hazy Hawk' is exploiting DNS misconfigurations to hijack abandoned cloud endpoints of domains belonging to trusted organizations. This technique, known as DNS CNAME hijacking, allows the group to integrate these domains into traffic distribution systems (TDS) and deliver large-scale scams. The impacts include compromising the security of trusted domains and using these domains for malicious activities.
