Mô tả CAPEC

An adversary registers a domain name with at least one character different than a trusted domain. A TypoSquatting attack takes advantage of instances where a user mistypes a URL (e.g. www.goggle.com) or not does visually verify a URL before clicking on it (e.g. phishing attack). As a result, the user is directed to an adversary-controlled destination. TypoSquatting does not require an attack against the trusted domain or complicated reverse engineering.

3) Exploit

[Deceive user into visiting domain] Finally, the adversary needs to deceive a user into visiting the TypoSquatted domain.

Kỹ thuật
  • Execute a phishing attack and send a user an e-mail convincing the user to click on a link leading the user to the TypoSquatted domain.
  • Assume that a user will incorrectly type the legitimate URL, leading the user to the TypoSquatted domain.
