Steakhouse postmortem reveals DNS hijack caused by registrar 2FA bypass

Steakhouse's postmortem of a 30 March security incident reveals that attackers hijacked its domain through a social engineering attack on its registrar, OVHcloud. The attacker impersonated the account owner, convinced support to disable hardware-based two-factor authentication, and took full control of the account. This allowed them to redirect DNS to a phishing site with a wallet drainer for about four hours. No user funds were lost, as on-chain systems remained secure, and wallet protections quickly detected the fake site. The breach underscores the risk of off-chain infrastructure vulnerabilities and over-reliance on a single registrar. Steakhouse has since migrated registrars, enhanced DNS monitoring, and implemented stricter domain security controls.
