clickjacking attacks
Clickjacking attacks, also known as UI redressing or UI rewriting attacks, refer to malicious tactics wherein a website or application tricks users into clicking on concealed or disguised buttons or links, unknowingly performing actions they did not intend to. These attacks exploit the transparency of web pages to overlay deceptive elements on top of legitimate content, leading users to unintentionally interact with hidden widgets, ads, or malware.
