XSS-Loader – XSS Scanner and Payload Generator
Cross-Site Scripting or XSS vulnerability is the flaw included in the OWASP Top 10 Vulnerabilities. In this Security Flaw, the Attacker generates a malicious JavaScript Payload code that has the intention to steal the cookies of the victim or to perform an account takeover. Sometimes this Flaw can create a severe problem on the back end of the web application. The malicious code is passed through user inputs, parameters, uploaded files, etc. If the information is handled properly before sending it to the webserver, then the application can be saved from an XSS attack.
