webpage, the attacker can use JavaScript to steal the cookie that is placed in the victim’s computer after authentication. And the attacker can exploit that to impersonate the victim and steal the victim’s sensitive data.

Example 3:

In this attack, the attacker creates a webpage on his website and includes a malicious link on that webpage. Then, he uses some trickery to convince the victim to click on the link. On clicking on the link, a malicious script runs that uses Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities of the well-known website and injects an iframe into that webpage.

If the victim now enters login credentials on the well-known website, the attacker can use JavaScript to steal the authentication cookie of the victim.

How to prevent the Cross Frame Scripting attack?

Always update your browser with updated security patches. This reduces the security vulnerabilities present in the web browser. As a result, it reduces the possibility of this attack. In fact, it is always good to update commonly used software, including operating systems and web browsers, with recent security patches. In most of the cyber attacks, attackers exploit security vulnerabilities of commonly used software. So, the more updated the software is, the better it is.

So, beware of various security vulnerabilities and stay safe and secure.
