NOTE Ever heard of a CAPTCHA? Of course you have—you’ve filled in the little numbers verifying you’re a real person before. Did you know those can be hijacked as well? CAPTCHAs can manipulate all sorts of server-side nonsense when abused.

Passwords can sometimes also be stored in cookies, and although it’s a horrible practice, it’s still fairly prevalent. Access to a target’s physical machine and the use of a tool to view the cookies stored on it (such as Karen’s Cookie Viewer) might give you access to passwords the user has for various websites. And, if they are like most people, it’s nearly a guarantee that the password you just lifted is being reused on another site or account. Additionally, don’t be thrown off by cookies with long, seemingly senseless text strings beside the user ID sections. On a few, you may be able to run them through a Unicode (or Base64) decoder to reveal the user’s password for that site.
