In this attack one of you browser tab replace with another page without your knowledge and permission, for example in one of your browser tab you have opened any website it will automatically replaced with the phishing side and the normal user’s does not look to the URL.

Is this the owner and admin of a particular website responsible for this attack? i think no an attacker can find any bug on any website like a cross site scripting and after this an attacker can enter their script to perform Tabnapping attack.
