<p>"Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)" attacks are a type of injection problem, in which malicious scripts are injected into the otherwise benign and trusted web sites.
|
||
|
XSS attacks occur 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. Flaws that allow these attacks to succeed are quite widespread and occur anywhere a web application using input from a user in the output,
|
||
|
without validating or encoding it.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>An attacker can use XSS to send a malicious script to an unsuspecting user. The end user's browser has no way to know that the script should not be trusted,
|
||
|
and will execute the JavaScript. Because it thinks the script came from a trusted source, the malicious script can access any cookies, session tokens, or other
|
||
|
sensitive information retained by your browser and used with that site. These scripts can even rewrite the content of the HTML page.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<p>The XSS is stored in the database. The XSS is permanent, until the database is reset or the payload is manually deleted.</p>

<h3>Objective</h3>
|
||
|
<p>Redirect everyone to a web page of your choosing.</p>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<br /><hr /><br />
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>Low Level</h3>
|
||
|
<p>Low level will not check the requested input, before including it to be used in the output text.</p>
|
||
|
<pre>Spoiler: <span class="spoiler">Either name or message field: <script>alert("XSS");</script></span>.</pre>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<br />
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>Medium Level</h3>
|
||
|
<p>The developer had added some protection, however hasn't done every field the same way.</p>
|
||
|
<pre>Spoiler: <span class="spoiler">name field: <sCriPt>alert("XSS");</sCriPt></span>.</pre>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<br />
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>High Level</h3>
|
||
|
<p>The developer believe they have disabled all script usage by removing the pattern "<s*c*r*i*p*t".</p>
|
||
|
<pre>Spoiler: <span class="spoiler">HTML events</span>.</pre>
|
||
|
|
||
|
<br />
|
||
|
|
||
|
<h3>Impossible Level</h3>
|
||
|
<p>Using inbuilt PHP functions (such as "<?php echo dvwaExternalLinkUrlGet( 'https://secure.php.net/manual/en/function.htmlspecialchars.php', 'htmlspecialchars()' ); ?>"),
|
||
|
its possible to escape any values which would alter the behaviour of the input.</p>
