TITLE:
Deep Diving into DOM-based XSS
ABSTRACT:
DOM-based XSS has been one complicated topic for beginners, and also for people with few years of experience. Even if we are aware of the definition or can write an entire para on it, it’s difficult to visualize, and most importantly, it becomes difficult to find the DOM-based XSS vulnerabilities and hence, exploit them.
During this session, we will understand the basics, of course, but will solve some DOM-based XSS examples, with the help of a debugger. We will not only just visualize and understand the issue, but will also exploit them.
The only pre-requisite for the session is:
The willingness to learn something interesting
