Researchers have discovered a flaw that exposes Google's Chrome web browser [1] to clickjacking. Clickjacking is a relatively new attack vector in which a legitimate link is substituted without the user's awareness. Clicking a photo that appears to be hosted on Flickr, for example, could actually direct the user to a malicious site set up as a drive-by-download server. The severity of the problem becomes compounded when trusted sites are hacked into and surreptitiously modified.
