OK now. Let's hijack github user's custom domain.
And I cearted this repo for quick checking with this idea.
Some days early I found an odd on github.
If users used wildcard DNS records to GitHub Pages.
That will let anyone can hijacking others user's sub-domain.
just like demo: http://hijack.michellerobinscreative.com
If an alone DNS records www.deepwn.com => GitHub Page:
If a wildcard DNS records *.deepwn.com => GitHub Page:
You can see. if a wildcard DNS records point to GitHub Page servers. you can ask for any sub-domain and answers all point to GitHub.
But, not only you can hosting on GitHub that anybody can do it.
So. If we do found a wildcard DNS records of custom domain in GitHub then we can do hijacking now.
You can see that's a lot lot lot lot of commits about domains
Just testing with run.sh to get limit 1 day's data we can found 11 vulnerables. OMG :(

GitHub already checked the DNS for user's domain when it put in settings.
And see we already have waring alert if problems about DNS or domain.
So why don't let peoples set a verify repo-name or username org-name in 'TXT' records? (can add a TXT but not must do)
Then server go check the DNS if a wildcard only should host for one username. just like some custom domain set in Mail-servers, used 'TXT' to verify the mail domain.
By this way we can control which repo can using this sub-domain and stop hosting if some one hijacking my page.
I had to report this to GitHub Security Bug Bounty. And write down this for you to tell you what kind of attack you maybe need face to.
Now we can see some "Danger Notes" in document https://help.github.com/articles/troubleshooting-custom-domains/#unsupported-custom-domain-name. But it's not be fixed and still none verify for this "BUG".
Now you need do attention to your settings before this be fixed.
PLEASE DON'T USE WILDCARD DNS RECORD FOR CUSTOM DOMAIN ON GITHUB !!!
