Client Side

CSS is one of the foremost routine vulnerabilities that affect many web applications. XSS attacks are essentially malicious injections (client-side) that are added to an internet page or app through user comments, form submissions, and so on. The most danger behind XSS is that it allows attackers to inject content into the online app. The injected content can modify how it's displayed, forcing the browser to execute the attacker’s code. Web vulnerabilities are developed for scanning whole webpage of internet sites. Vulnerability Assessment is that the process of identifying vulnerabilities in your application’s environment. Vulnerability is defined as a weakness or flaw within the system that permits an attacker or insider to access the system during a way they’re not authorized.

Broad Scale

Web applications (WAs) are constantly evolving and deployed at broad scale. However, they are exposed to a variety of attacks. The biggest challenge facing organizations is how to develop a WA that fulfills their requirements with respect to sensitive data exchange, E-commerce, and secure workflows. This paper identifies the most critical web vulnerabilities according to OWASP Top Ten, their corresponding attacks, and their countermeasures. The application of these countermeasures will guarantee the protection of the WAs against the most severe attacks and prevent several unknown exploits.

Cross Site

Websites rely completely on complex web applications to deliver content to all users according to set preferences and specific needs. In this manner organizations provide better value to their customers and prospects. Dynamic websites suffer from various vulnerabilities rendering organizations helpless and prone to cross site scripting attacks. Cross Site Scripting attacks are difficult to detect because they are executed as a background process. Cross Site Scripting is the most common web vulnerabilities in existence today which is most exploited issue .In this paper we have presented various approaches used by clients and Server to prevent XSS attacks

Cross Site

Today's dynamic web-based applications have become a normal and critical asset to an organizations business. They come with an increase in the number of web vulnerabilities and attacks. These weaknesses allow hackers to focus their attention on attacking this important information source. The most common vulnerability is cross-site scripting (XSS) and one of the Open Web Application Security project (OWASP) top ten web-threats. XSS occurs when a Web-based application allows untrusted information be accepted and sent back to a browser. Also they can execute scripts within a browser that can deface web sites, redirect users to malicious content and hijack browsers. One reason for this problem was the lack of developers understanding the causes of XSS. In this paper, the authors address the causes of XSS and countermeasures to defense against these threats.
