Email Exfiltration in Web Forms by aditya doneria is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This paper studies the collection of email addresses and passwords by third-party scripts before users submit online forms. The researchers developed a crawler to fill out email and password fields and monitor network traffic for leaks on the top 100,000 websites. They found that email addresses were exfiltrated before submission on over 1,800 EU sites and 2,900 US sites, with some passwords also collected incidentally. The effects of location, consent settings, and mobile vs desktop were evaluated.
