    Cross-site Scripting (XSS) is a client-side code injection attack. ... The actual attack occurs when the victim visits the web page or web application that executes the malicious code. The web page or web application becomes a vehicle to deliver the malicious script to the user's browser.

    Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks are a type of injection, in which malicious scripts are injected into otherwise benign and trusted websites. 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.

    Cross Site Scripting is a type of injection where the attacker inserts script (oftentimes Javascript) into a page, and that script is unsanitized and allowed to remain in the browser – meaning the script can basically execute as if the administrator had written it himself.

    There could be a variety of consequences: It could alter the display, modify the browser, or even steal your session cookie and sign in as an administrator, giving complete control over to a hacker.

    I use the word “could” because there’s a lot of uncertainty about the XSS vulnerability and what the consequences can be. Think of the XSS vulnerability as a latent virus. Just as there are human viruses that are latent until something else triggers it so it physically manifests, XSS vulnerabilities also have to have some sort action whether it’s social engineering, or someone to visit a page and click a button. This could be immediate, or it could take a while. In a sense, this brings with it a new level of danger because developers cannot develop a patch when they don’t know that the vulnerability even exists.

    Cross-site scripting is a type of computer security vulnerability typically found in web applications. XSS attacks enable attackers to inject client-side scripts into web pages viewed by other users. A cross-site scripting vulnerability may be used by attackers to bypass access controls such as the same-origin policy.

    Cross-site scripting (also known as XSS) is a web security vulnerability that allows an attacker to compromise the interactions that users have with a vulnerable application. It allows an attacker to circumvent the same origin policy, which is designed to segregate different websites from each other. Cross-site scripting vulnerabilities normally allow an attacker to masquerade as a victim user, to carry out any actions that the user is able to perform, and to access any of the user's data. If the victim user has privileged access within the application, then the attacker might be able to gain full control over all of the application's functionality and data.
