  1. XSS Cross Site Scripting

DOM XSS

Last updated 1 year ago

Vulnerable apps: JS frameworks, single-page applications, and APIs that dynamically include external JS.

  • Ideally, applications would not send attacker-controllable data to unsafe JavaScript APIs.

Attacker controls remote resource (or injects resource).

  • All aspects of the client facing app may be diverted.
