While being logged into Gmail with the brower interface, IF one opens another tab/browser window and stumbles across an 'evil' site, the 'evil' site can inject a filter into the Filter List. The attacker can then forward emails wherever they want via the filter. The above site contains graphics that show how this is accomplished. > The attack will remain present for as long as the victim has the filter within their > filter list, even if the initial vulnerability, which was the cause of the injection, is > fixed by Google. Bullseye on Google: Hackers expose holes in GMail, Blogspot, Search Appliance http://blogs.zdnet.com/security/?p=539 > The unpatched GMail bug, which was demonstrated for me by hacker Petko D. Petkov, is > particularly nasty because of the way the exploit works without any user action and the > fact that it’s difficult for the average GMail user to know that e-mails are being stolen.
