Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, claudecode-desktop.gitlab.io, is flagged as a high-risk credential harvesting phishing infrastructure. Analysis indicates it is designed to mimic legitimate login portals, tricking users into submitting sensitive credentials such as usernames, passwords, and multi-factor authentication codes. The threat type is classified as generic_phishing, with a focus on impersonating corporate or service provider authentication pages to facilitate account takeovers or unauthorized access. Infrastructure analysis reveals the following technical indicators: the domain is hosted on GitLab Pages and resolves to the IP address 35.185.44.232. VirusTotal detection shows 1 out of 95 security vendors have flagged this domain as malicious, suggesting limited but present recognition of its threat status. The domain remains active at the time of this report, with no observed takedown or deactivation. The SSL certificate is issued by GlobalSign nv-sa, which may lend an appearance of legitimacy to unsuspecting users. No additional historical data, such as domain creation date or registrar details, is available due to the domain being a subdomain of gitlab.io, which obscures traditional WHOIS records. Mitigation steps for this specific threat type include immediate blocklisting of the domain and its associated IP address (35.185.44.232) at the network perimeter. Organizations should deploy email and web filtering rules to prevent users from accessing or interacting with the domain. Security teams are advised to monitor for credential reuse or unauthorized access attempts stemming from harvested credentials. User awareness training should emphasize the risks of entering credentials on unfamiliar or cloned login pages, particularly those hosted on subdomains of legitimate platforms like GitLab. Additionally, enabling multi-factor authentication on all critical accounts can reduce the impact of credential theft. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 66f9a1c3f2cfd0df1b570990e86d3095 TLS cert SHA-256: dd0525989e2180a70e046b83909bb7b33ba4b6f714e59de909ed068f9bd5b099 ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/claudecode-desktop.gitlab.io/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=claudecode-desktop.gitlab.io Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
