Fenghuo targets hijacking: sending users somewhere they did not choose, including breaking the browser back button so they cannot leave.
What it detects
- Redirects that fire only for visitors arriving from Baidu.
- Back-button interception that traps the user on the page.
- Third-party scripts performing either behaviour.
The innocent case
Compromised sites and hostile ad partners. The owner never sees it because it does not fire for direct visits.
Alien Road
Cómo lo aplicamos
We test as a search visitor on a mobile user agent before accepting a site is clean. Back-button hijacking is often installed by an ad network rather than the owner, which does not change the consequence.
