Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks are a type of injection in which malicious scripts are injected into otherwise benign and trusted websites. XSS occurs when an attacker uses a web application to send malicious code, generally in the form of a browser-side script, to a different end user.

XSS remains one of the most prevalent web vulnerabilities, appearing in everything from search bars to user profile fields. The three main variants — Reflected, Stored, and DOM-based — each have distinct attack surfaces. Reflected XSS executes via a crafted URL, Stored XSS persists in the application's database and fires for every visitor, and DOM-based XSS exploits client-side JavaScript that unsafely handles user input without any server round-trip.

The impact of XSS extends well beyond simple alert boxes. Attackers leverage it for session hijacking, credential theft, keylogging, phishing overlays, and as a pivot point for deeper exploitation. In bug bounty programs, Stored XSS on authenticated pages consistently pays well because it can be chained into account takeover.

Modern defenses include Content Security Policy (CSP), output encoding, and frameworks that auto-escape by default — but bypasses are discovered regularly, making XSS a constantly evolving attack surface.

This page collects research, bypass techniques, payloads, and real-world writeups covering all forms of cross-site scripting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the three types of XSS?
The three main types are Reflected XSS (payload delivered via a URL and immediately reflected in the response), Stored XSS (payload persisted in the application database and served to other users), and DOM-based XSS (payload executed entirely in the browser via client-side JavaScript without a server round-trip).
How do you prevent cross-site scripting?
Key defenses include output encoding (HTML, JavaScript, URL, and CSS contexts), Content Security Policy (CSP) headers, using frameworks that auto-escape by default (React, Angular), input validation, and the HttpOnly flag on session cookies to limit the impact of successful attacks.
Why is XSS still so common?
XSS persists because web applications have many injection points (URL parameters, form fields, headers, file uploads), developers must encode output correctly for every context, and modern JavaScript frameworks can be bypassed through dangerouslySetInnerHTML, template injection, or prototype pollution.
