A frame injection attack is an attack on Internet Explorer 5, Internet Explorer 6 and Internet Explorer 7 to load arbitrary code in the browser. This attack is caused by Internet Explorer not checking the destination of the resulting frame, therefore allowing arbitrary code such as Javascript or VBScript. This also happens when code gets injected through frames due to scripts not validating their input. This other type of frame injection affects all browsers and scripts that do not validate untrusted input.
Famous quotes containing the word frame:
“A cold and searching wind drives away all contagion, and nothing can withstand it but what has a virtue in it, and accordingly, whatever we meet with in cold and bleak places, as the tops of mountains, we respect for a sort of sturdy innocence, a Puritan toughness. All things beside seem to be called in for shelter, and what stays out must be part of the original frame of the universe, and of such valor as God himself.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
