Man in the Browser
,----[ Quote ]
| Man in the Browser a.k.a MITB is a new breed
| of attacks whose primary objective is to spy
| on browser sessions (mostly banking) and in
| that process intercept and modify the web page
| contents transparently in the background. In a
| classic MITB attack, It's a very likely that
| what the user is seeing on his/her browser
| window is not something which the actual
| server sent. Similarly, what server sees on
| the other end might not be what user was
| intending to send. Why MITB? How different is
| it from conventional browser hijacking? I'll
| explain that shortly.
