Description:
In this example, a new div element is created and inserted into the webpage using JavaScript. The div contains a link to a malicious website and an image from that website, which would be displayed as an ad on the page. Of course, in a real-world scenario, the code would be more complex and obfuscated to avoid detection.
Code
// Code to insert malicious ad onto webpage
var adElement = document.createElement("div");
adElement.innerHTML = "<a href='http://malicious-site.com'><img src='http://malicious-site.com/malicious-ad.jpg' /></a>";
document.body.appendChild(adElement);Created
