Abstract
In this world of networking where people around the globe are connected, Cross-site Scripting (XSS) has emerged to one of the most prevalent growing threat. XSS attacks are those in which attackers inject malicious codes, most often client-side scripts, into web applications from outside sources. Because of the number of possible injection location and techniques, many applications are vulnerable to this attack method. Even though the main reason for the vulnerability primarily lies on the server side, the actual exploitation is within the victim’s web browser on the client side.
