　　Clickjacking is a malicious technique of tricking Web users into revealing confidential information or taking control of their computer while clicking on seemingly innocuous Web pages. A vulnerability across a variety of browsers and platforms, a clickjacking takes the form of embedded code or script that can execute without the user's knowledge, such as clicking on a button that appears to “play” a video but actually is tricking users to make their social networking profile information public。

　　“点击劫持”是一种恶意攻击技术，用于跟踪网络用户，获取其私密信息或者通过让用户点击看似正常的网页来远程控制其电脑。很多浏览器和操作平台都有这样的漏洞。“点击劫持”技术可以用嵌入代码或者文本的形式出现，在用户毫不知情的情况下完成攻击，比如：点击一个表面显示是“播放”某个视频的按钮，而实际上完成的操作却是将用户的社交网站个人信息改为“公开”状态。
