I'm pretty certain Riot stopped using "attack" to refer to anything other than basic attacks years ago. Some old tooltips, like Swain's Torment, may still say "increases the damage of his attacks" (I haven't checked recently, though) - but pretty much anything from season 2 onwards consistently distinguishes "attacks" and "abilities" (although I'm sure you'll find me one exception).

Some Rioters are less consistent, but I'm pretty certain all runes are consistent with the distinction. If you still read the word "attack" and think it includes spells, at this point that's just your problem.
