Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] The domain cpanel.sonic-lab.net has been identified as a generic phishing threat, specifically a fraudulent cPanel login page designed to steal user credentials. This threat is currently classified as elevated risk, though the domain has been taken offline. The page title 'cPanel Login' is a direct impersonation of the legitimate cPanel authentication interface, targeting users who may be tricked into entering their hosting control panel credentials. Technical analysis reveals that the domain was created on November 4, 2009, and is registered through DomainSpot LLC. It resolves to IP address 162.241.22.14 and uses a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate (R13), which provides a false sense of security. On VirusTotal, 3 out of 95 security vendors flagged this domain as malicious, and it appears on one security blocklist. These indicators confirm the domain's intent to deceive users. As the domain is currently offline, the immediate threat is mitigated, but users should remain vigilant. PhishDestroy recommends that anyone who may have encountered this page should avoid entering any information and change passwords for any accounts that might have been compromised. Always verify the legitimacy of login pages by checking URLs carefully and using official bookmarks. If you suspect exposure, run a security scan and enable two-factor authentication on sensitive accounts. ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- PhishDestroy Case ID: PD-20260506-CD97D9 Favicon MD5: 827fd6c561d4b1f932f75e0f9a17f766 TLS cert SHA-256: 79210de8b463fd1b98d2aad2b2b94334e1e858895fe05dbc256d0825a1c8ab7a ## 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/cpanel.sonic-lab.net/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=cpanel.sonic-lab.net 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.
