Very recent articles, one of which is on Bleeping Computer, states that Chrome, Firefox and Opera is vulnerable to undetectable phishing attack.

Google fixed this issue in Chrome Canary 59 and in Chrome Stable 58, which is available now.

Apparently Mozilla is currently still discussing a fix, but in the meantime, users have an option that will disable Punycode support and mitigate this attack.

I'm not sure regarding Opera.

Hmm, Punycode, the little things we learn.
