Security incidents

2025 DOM-based Extension Clickjacking

Security researcher Marek Tóth presented a vulnerability in browser extensions of several password managers (including Dashlane) at DEF CON 33 on August 9, 2025. In their default configurations, these extensions were shown to be exposed to a DOM-based extension clickjacking technique, allowing attackers to exfiltrate user data with just a single click. [13] The affected password manager vendors were notified in April 2025. According to Tóth, Dashlane version 6.2531.1 (August 1, 2025) addressed the issue. [14]
