Simplifying XSS Detection with Nuclei - A New Approach
projectdiscovery.io | tool | #bug-bounty
Summary
XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) detection has long been a challenge, balancing accuracy with avoiding excessive false positives. Traditionally, this meant creating specific reflection based string matchers for each target, leading to complex and hard-to-maintain configurations. But with headless modes, we can simplify and improve XSS detection in a more intuitive and efficient way. In this post, we'll explore how to leverage nuclei headless mode to detect XSS payloads more easily and accurately, usi
