LSW Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 If you run or build eCommerce sites, here is an article to be aware of: In-Depth Analysis of JS Sniffers Uncovers New Families of Credit Card-Skimming Code https://thehackernews.com/2019/04/js-sniffers-credit-card-hacking.html Quote In a world that's growing increasingly digital, Magecart attacks have emerged as a key cybersecurity threat to e-commerce sites. Magecart, which is in the news a lot lately, is an umbrella term given to 12 different cyber criminal groups that are specialized in secretly implanting a special piece of code on compromised e-commerce sites with an intent to steal payment card details of their customers. The malicious code—well known as JS sniffers, JavaScript sniffers, or online credit card skimmers—has been designed to intercept users' input on compromised websites to steal customers’ bank card numbers, names, addresses, login details, and passwords in real time.
