The list of security hacking incidents covers important or noteworthy events in the history of security hacking and cracking.
A Self-XSS attack warning on a browser's web developer console Self-XSS operates by tricking users also into copying and pasting malicious content into their browsers' web developer console. [1] Usually, the attacker posts a message that says by copying and running certain code, the user will be able to receive virtual rewards or hack a website.

A crack can mean any tool that enables breaking software protection, a stolen product key, or guessed password. Cracking software generally involves circumventing ...
Code injections are a class of computer security exploits in which a vulnerable computer program misinterprets external data as part of its code. An attacker thereby "injects" code into the program, changing the course of its execution. The result of successful code injection can have major consequences, for example, by allowing computer ...
