A tiny $5 worth USB hacking tool can compromise a password protected PC

Samy Kamkar who previously developed many sophisticated hacking tools has recently developed a very strong hacking tool called “Poison Tap”. It’s a very small USB device that works by re-routing all the internet traffic to its own domain and hence accesses cookies. And for this the attacker can access even password protected computer.

This hacking tool evades the following security mechanisms:

• Password Protected Lock Screens
• Routing Table priority and network interface Service Order
• Same-Origin Policy
• X-Frame-Options
• HttpOnly Cookies
• SameSite cookie attribute
• Two-Factor/Multi-Factor Authentication (2FA/MFA)
• DNS Pinning
• Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)
