  2. Self-XSS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-XSS

    Self-XSS (self cross-site scripting) is a type of security vulnerability used to gain control of victims' web accounts. In a Self-XSS attack, the victim of the attack runs malicious code in their own web browser, thus exposing personal information to the attacker.

  3. Cross-site scripting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_scripting

    Cross-site scripting (XSS) [a] is a type of security vulnerability that can be found in some web applications. XSS attacks enable attackers to inject client-side scripts into web pages viewed by other users. A cross-site scripting vulnerability may be used by attackers to bypass access controls such as the same-origin policy.

  4. Impossible color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impossible_color

    The color is not possible to achieve through normal vision, because the lack of incident light (in the black) prevents saturation of the blue/yellow chromatic signal (the blue appearance). Self-luminous colors These mimic the effect of glowing material, even when viewed on a medium such as paper, which can only reflect and not emit its own light.

  5. Cross-site request forgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_request_forgery

    The attack is blind: the attacker cannot see what the target website sends back to the victim in response to the forged requests, unless they exploit a cross-site scripting or other bug at the target website. Similarly, the attacker can only target any links or submit any forms that come up after the initial forged request if those subsequent ...

  6. Vulnerability (computer security) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulnerability_(computer...

    Cross-site scripting (XSS) enables attackers to inject and run JavaScript-based malware when input checking is insufficient to reject the injected code. [28] XSS can be persistent, when attackers save the malware in a data field and run it when the data is loaded; it can also be loaded using a malicious URL link (reflected XSS). [28]

  7. Cross-origin resource sharing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing

    While JSONP can cause cross-site scripting (XSS) issues when the external site is compromised, CORS allows websites to manually parse responses to increase security. [1] The main advantage of JSONP was its ability to work on legacy browsers which predate CORS support (Opera Mini and Internet Explorer 9 and earlier). CORS is now supported by ...

  8. Reflection attack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_attack

    In computer security, a reflection attack is a method of attacking a challenge–response authentication system that uses the same protocol in both directions. That is, the same challenge–response protocol is used by each side to authenticate the other side.

    Samy (also known as JS.Spacehero) is a cross-site scripting worm that was designed to propagate across the social networking site MySpace by Samy Kamkar. Within just 20 hours [1] of its October 4, 2005 release, over one million users had run the payload [2] making Samy the fastest-spreading virus of all time. [3] The message on a victim's profile
