Comment (by dd32):

 > These probably shouldn't be publically accessible
 That's unfortunately how cPanel works, and they're intentionally so.

 Having these accessible is not a security issue either.

 > but if that's necessary then they should, at the very least, be
 noindex'd (either by including a meta robots directive in the head, or,
 returning an x-robots-tag HTTP header).

 Unfortunately due to these (and the server configuration) being controlled
 by cPanel directly, it's not viable to do these AFAIK.

 It's probably possible to disable the `proxy subdomains` configuration on
 the server, removing all of these entries for the host, but I'm not sure
 who/what is using the hosting or reliant upon the feature (It also
 controls things like Outlook mail configuration amongst other things).
