Topics
Tom Merritt: 我讨论了最近发生的Gmail钓鱼攻击事件,攻击者利用Google系统的漏洞,伪造了看起来非常真实的来自Google的安全警报邮件。这些邮件会诱导用户点击链接,从而泄露他们的Google账户信息。攻击者利用了Google的OAuth应用和sites.google.com平台,使得钓鱼邮件能够通过Google的DKIM身份验证,并被Gmail归类到正常的安全警报邮件中,这使得这些邮件看起来非常可信。 我解释了攻击者是如何利用Google OAuth应用来生成这些看起来合法的邮件的,以及Google是如何验证邮件的头部信息而不是转发后的信封信息,从而导致了这个漏洞。 我建议用户在收到任何紧急信息时都要格外小心,不要点击邮件中的链接,而是应该直接访问网站或拨打电话进行确认。 对于银行或其他重要机构发来的邮件,更应该谨慎对待,不要轻信邮件内容,而是应该直接联系机构进行确认。 Rob Dunwood: 我补充说明了对于银行等重要机构发来的邮件,应该直接拨打机构电话或使用已保存的联系方式进行确认,不要轻信邮件内容。 我同意Tom的观点,虽然建议不要点击邮件链接,但现实中很多人仍然会这样做,因此建议提高警惕,对于重要邮件,应采取额外措施进行验证。 随着钓鱼邮件越来越复杂,每个人都更容易上当受骗,因此谨慎小心至关重要。
