# Performing Clickjacking Attack Test ## When to Use - During authorized penetration tests when assessing UI redressing vulnerabilities - When testing whether sensitive actions (delete account, transfer funds, change settings) can be performed via clickjacking - For evaluating the effectiveness of X-Frame-Options and Content-Security-Policy frame-ancestors directives - When assessing applications that process one-click actions without additional confirmation - During security audits of applications handling financial transactions or account management ## Prerequisites - **Authorization**: Written penetration testing agreement for the target - **Web browser**: Modern browser for testing iframe embedding - **Local web server**: Python `http.server` or similar for hosting PoC pages - **Burp Suite**: For examining response headers - **HTML/CSS knowledge**: For crafting clickjacking overlay pages - **curl**: For checking framing headers on target pages > **Legal Notice:** This skill is for authorized security testing and educational purposes only. Unauthorized use against systems you do not own or have written permission to test is illegal and may violate computer fraud laws. ## Workflow ### Step 1: Check Frame Embedding Protections Examine response headers for anti-clickjacking defenses. ```bash # Check X-Frame-Options header curl -s -I "https://target.example.com/" | grep -i "x-frame-options" # Expected values: # X-Frame-Options: DENY (blocks all framing) # X-Frame-Opt...
