Browser attacks
118 posts
Browser attacks target users through the web pages, sessions, and extensions they rely on every day — bypassing endpoint and network defenses that never see inside the browser. Techniques like AiTM phishing kits, ClickFix-style copy-paste attacks, OAuth consent abuse, malvertising, and browser sync abuse have become a leading path to account takeover. Push researchers analyze these attacks in the wild, from infiltrating criminal phishing panels to dissecting toolkits like ConsentFix and Sneaky2FA. Use this hub to track how the techniques evolve and how to defend against them.
We coined the poisoned tenant attack in 2023; in 2026, someone used it on us
Someone created a fake OpenAI organization using our company's name and invited specific Push employees to join it. Here's what we learned.
