XSS cheatsheet

If you don't know how XSS (Cross Site Scripting) works, this page probably won't help you. This page is for people who already understand the basics of XSS but want a deep understanding of the nuances regarding filter evasion. This page will also not show you how to mitigate these risks or how to write the actual cookie/credential stealing portion of the attack. It will simply show the underlying attack vectors and you can infer the rest.
