Browser Vulnerability

Posted 18 December 2008 - 08:21 AM

I'm pretty sure that I saw this floating around here at some point about ClickJacking and people getting screwed up pretty badly. Buddy of mine had his bank account stolen, but luckily the bank caught the erroneous transfers and kept the funds safe. There's an add-on released for Firefox that will all but eliminate the problem, at least for now. You can download it here. Once the add-on is installed, go to Tools > Add-ons > No Script and click on options. Go to the Plug-ins tab and click the Forbid <IFRAME> option. This will block ClickJacking on all sites that you haven't whitelisted. You can also use this add-on to disable all other kinds of scripting if that strikes your fancy.

Hope this info helps someone.

:P Bite me sloth, I figured more people would see it here as it seems more people frequent the lounge as well as other places on the site. If you want to move it, feel free.
