HTML Smuggling: Attack and Mitigation

HTML smuggling is a type of web-based attack that exploits vulnerabilities in web applications to deliver malicious content to unsuspecting users. This attack has become increasingly popular in recent years, as cybercriminals continue to look for new ways to circumvent security measures and deliver malware to users. Mitigating HTML smuggling attacks is a complex task, as it requires a deep understanding of web application security and the ability to identify and mitigate vulnerabilities in web applications. In this research paper, the authors provide a comprehensive overview of HTML smuggling attacks and their mitigation. They explore the techniques used by attackers to carry out the attack, including the use of steganography and obfuscation to hide malicious code within legitimate HTML code. They also discuss the impact of the attack on web applications and users, including the delivery of various types of malwares.
