Date: Mon, 10 Sep 2007 17:01:06 +0100 From: "pdp (architect)" <pdp.gnucitizen@...glemail.com> To: full-disclosure@...ts.grok.org.uk Subject: How to make money with XSS http://www.gnucitizen.org/blog/how-to-make-money-with-xss Finding XSS is dead easy task. Everybody is vulnerable to this type of issue and even if there are protection mechanisms on place such as application firewalls and sanitization filters, very often attackers can get a stable exploit working in a matter of a couple of minutes. In fact, I don't think that there are unstable XSS exploits. It is not like the attacker have to manipulate the stack or a corrupted heap in order to get some sort of execution control. No! It is a simple injection issue. So the question is not whether the bad guys can find a XSS issue on your site/application - they can and they will. The question is what sort of things they can do with it. -- pdp (architect) | petko d. petkov http://www.gnucitizen.org _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
