(How nice is that!)
The clickjacking attacks that
plagued Facebook
recently has made a comeback. Security experts warn that the new spam
messages touch on popular subjects such as the World Cup, the BP leak,
the new Shrek movie and the UFC games or celebrities like Justin Biebers
or Hayley Williams.
Celebrity gossip has always been a good ruse for cybercrime and the
recently leaked intimate photo of Paramore lead vocalist Hayley Williams
is bound to attract some attention. That's why the latest clickjacking
run on Facebook forces victim to "Like" a link called "Paramore n-a-k-ed
photo leaked!"
But Ms. Williams is not the only celebrity whose popularity is being
exploited by these attackers. The massive fan base of teen sensation
Justin Biebers has also been targeted under the pretense of revealing
the star's address and phone number. Users who fall for this scam will
publish "Justin Biebers Phone Number Leaked!" back on their Facebook
page.
In both cases visiting the link will open an external page that is
rigged with code that uses a clickjacking trick to trigger an
unauthorized action. "What the hackers have actually done is very
sneaky. They have hidden an invisible button under your mouse, so
wherever you click on the website your mouse-press is hijacked. As a
consequence, when you click with the mouse you're also secretly clicking
on a button which tells Facebook that you 'like' the webpage. This then
gets published on your own Facebook page and shared with your online
friends, resulting in the link spreading
virally," explains Sophos' Senior Technology Consultant, Graham Cluley,
who puts the number of affected users into the thousands.
Meanwhile, Richard Cohen, the technical lead for malware research at
SophosLabs Canada, has dug a little deeper and uncovered more Facebook
clickjacking campaigns that abuse topics of interest. For example, some
of them promise to allow users to view "WORLD CUP 2010 in HD" or a "Top
Secret Video you’ve NEVER seen" concerning the BP oil spill. Others
falsely claim to be offering the ability to "Watch UFC 114 Online" or "Shrek:
Forever After" for free.
If you are amongst the users affected by any of these attacks, you are
advised to remove any mention of these links from your profile and
newsfeed and consider the links you are about to visit very carefully,
even if your friend posted them.
