New "DoubleClickjacking" Exploit Bypasses Clickjacking Protections on Major Websites

Threat hunters have disclosed a new “widespread timing-based vulnerability class” that leverages a double-click sequence to facilitate clickjacking attacks and account takeovers in almost all major websites. The technique has been codenamed DoubleClickjacking by security researcher Paulos Yibelo. “Instead of relying on a single click, it takes advantage of a double-click sequence,” Yibelo said.
