Cross-Site Challenge-Response Attacks

Brute-forces password and secret-code challenge-response checks across origins by making visitors' browsers submit guesses and reading success from side channels that survive the same-origin policy. One variant turns any page visitor into a guessing bot, another targets the visitor's own account; a survey finds the weakness in popular sites, CMSs, routers and IoT devices.
