arable official discord channel takeover  #5

Description

@milankatwal99

Bug Description
When a web application has any pages, sources, links to external 3rd party services and are broken then the attacker can claim those endpoints to successfully conduct the attack and claim those endpoints on behalf of the target website and impersonate his identity

Severity: High

Impact
The attacker can post malicious content on the discord channel and if the user clicks on that link it leads to theft of sensitive information like location, email etc and can lead to theft of the user's funds.
Impersonation attack
Loss in the reputation of the company
It leads to many types of impersonation attack

I have posted the news that shows what can be the real impact
