Phishing pop-ups can fool all browsers
Security firm Secunia warns that all known browsers suffer from a potentially devastating flaw - in which:
a website can inject content into another site's window if the target name of the window is known. This can e.g. be exploited by a malicious website to spoof the content of a pop-up window opened on a trusted website.
Surprising, although Internet Explorer is finger as vulnerable, so are all major browser platforms, such as Mozilla 1.7.3 and Mozilla Firefox 1.0, Opera, Konqueror, and Safari.
This Window Injection Vulnerability is further covered on the Secunia website:
