These links can either be embedded in Google Calendar event descriptions, or in emails purporting to be Google Calendar invites: In both cases, a lot of care will be taken to make the links appear normal and genuine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">A standard Google Calendar invite comes with links to both the event itself and the list of guests\u2014the event is also included as an .ics file attachment to open in a calendar app. Events themselves, meanwhile, can come with links embedded in the description and files from Google Drive attached. All of these elements can be taken advantage of in some way by bad actors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\">Take the recent security vulnerability <a data-offer-url=\"https:\/\/blog.checkpoint.com\/securing-user-and-access\/google-calendar-notifications-bypassing-email-security-policies\/\" class=\"external-link\" data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https:\/\/blog.checkpoint.com\/securing-user-and-access\/google-calendar-notifications-bypassing-email-security-policies\/&quot;}\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.checkpoint.com\/securing-user-and-access\/google-calendar-notifications-bypassing-email-security-policies\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">reported by Check Point<\/a> as one example: The attack works by spoofing a genuine Google Calendar invite over email.
