Route53/CloudFront Vulnerability assessment utility.

CloudJack assesses AWS accounts for subdomain hijacking vulnerabilities as a result of decoupled Route53 and CloudFront configurations. This vulnerability exists if a Route53 alias references 1) a deleted CloudFront web distribution or 2) an active CloudFront web distribution with deleted CNAME(s).

If this decoupling is discovered by an attacker, they can simply create a CloudFront web distribution and/or CloudFront NAME(s) in their account that match the victim account's Route53 A record host name. Exploitation of this vulnerability results in the ability to spoof the victim's web site content, which otherwise would have been accessed through the victim's account.
