  2/3 PortSwigger's Gareth Heyes showed it at Black Hat. One Outlook chain spoofs a Microsoft sign in and grabs the typed password. A Yahoo/AOL paste race leaks a login token. A Gmail chain exfiltrates a Slack token after prompt injection. #InfoSec #Privacy #CyberAttack

  @tmophoto @photoncmndr We’ve been running the same ERP since 1998. We have an AOL email address. We are lazy and old We don’t know what ******** an agent is You focus on ripping other people off, we will focus on cashing checks.

  @TimothyImholt I've *definitely* never had an AOL address. Why would I? I had access via university.

  I developed my entire internet access via American Online AOL dial up service and after. It treats me like a very abnormal normal person. I have been balancing the entire internet.

  @heyraven_io @WildComputers How much does the creation of a single tiny hat cost you in USD? How many of your users are paying for the service? You are the equivalent of AOL giving dial-up minutes at a loss in the name of "growth" or non-viable dot-coms burning tons of VC capital in the name of "growth".

  New research shows content inside an email can escape its message boundary and interfere with the webmail interface. Across attack chains spanning Outlook, Gmail, Fastmail, Proton Mail, Yahoo Mail, and AOL Mail, the techniques can capture passwords, take over third-party accounts, leak tokens, hijack trusted UI actions, and manipulate AI tools that read email. PortSwigger researcher Gareth Heyes presented the work at Black Hat USA 2026. One Outlook/Firefox chain spoofs a Microsoft sign-in screen and captures the password a recipient types. A Yahoo/AOL paste race can expose a Medium email-login token and let an attacker sign in as the victim. A Gmail/Cowork chain can exfiltrate a Slack token after prompt injection and user interaction. The paper presents proof-of-concept research and does not report malicious exploitation. Public PoCs remain available as of August 8. The researcher said Fastmail fixed two CSS mutation bugs and a Proton Mail proxy bypass stopped working when he retested it, while Outlook label-jacking and Gmail's image-set() bypass still worked when the research was published on August 6. The paper does not state whether the full Outlook password-capture chain was fixed. For webmail providers, the paper recommends isolating HTML email in sandboxed iframes and tightly restricting CSS, custom attributes, select menus, and image requests.
