The internationalized domain name (IDN) homograph attack is a way a malicious party may deceive computer users about what remote system they are communicating with, by exploiting the fact that many different characters look alike (i.e., they are homographs, hence the term for the attack, although technically homoglyph is the more accurate term for different characters that look alike).
- Install python
- clone this rbURL
- run with command
py rbUrl.py
if there's error , u must install colorama first with this command
- make sure u have add pip to environment variables
- run this command
pip install colorama
For the example :
human eyes see all URLs are the same, nothing suspicious or strange
But not with the computer
example , human eyes see apple.com just like normal
But computer see there is a Cyrillic character inside 'apple' in 'a' letter
if you type apple.com in browser , there is nothing happened , it's an official web of apple
but if you type 'apple.com' with 'a' letter is change to Cyrillic character, it will shock you
apple.com is empty because u use 'a' letter of Cyrillic to fake human eyes.
That mean , you can buy that domain and you can do something crazy like phising with another level
in this case I'll use my tools to perform this attack and the target is apple.com
check the domain for the result :
see ? you can buy domain apple.com
cause there is Cyrillic character included.
