Delete verified record

Property Value
Language terraform
Severity critical
Service dns
Provider Nifcloud

Description

Leaving DNS TXT authentication records (such as 'nifty-dns-verify=...') in the zone after verification allows unauthorized parties to use the record to re-verify and claim control of the DNS zone. The code fails to remove these sensitive records after use, exposing the zone to takeover.

Impact

If exploited, attackers could register or take over the DNS zone by leveraging the leftover verification record, enabling them to manipulate DNS entries, redirect traffic, or compromise services relying on the affected domain.

Resolution

Remove verified record
