I believe LetsEncrypt will issue you a certificate for that subdomain if you can control the server responding at that subdomain.

EDIT:

Specifically: https://letsencrypt.org/docs/challenge-types/

It won't give you a wildcard certificate, but you don't need one for the type of attack we're talking about.

Well, hopefully they use certificate pinning. And if not, they should do certificate transparency like chromes does.
