Clickjacking Attack Lab (Cupcakes)

Overview

Clickjacking, also known as a "UI redress attack", is an attack that tricks a user into clicking on something they do not intend to when visiting a webpage, thus "hijacking" the click. In this lab, we will explore a common attack vector for clickjacking: the attacker creates a webpage that loads the content of a legitimate page but overlays one or more of its buttons with invisible button(s) that trigger malicious actions. When a user attempts to click on the legitimate page's buttons, the browser registers a click on the invisible button instead, triggering the malicious action.
