These attacks first collect data generated when a user visits different websites and then use methods such as machine learning to process the data and identify the websites. Previous research has mainly focused on traditional network traffic-based website fingerprinting attacks. This paper highlights the more recently emerged host-side channel-based website fingerprinting attacks and discusses the process, fingerprinting characteristics, threat models, classification methods, evaluation metrics, and defense measures of these two types of attacks. Finally, this paper provides an outlook on the future research directions of website fingerprinting attacks, particularly addressing the current issues and future development of host-side channel-based website fingerprinting attacks.展开更多
