Cross-site scripting (XSS) is a security vulnerability that allows an attacker to inject malicious code scripts into web applications. These attacks can expose the end user’s personal and sensitive data as they click through seemingly trustworthy links.

XSS attacks are fairly widespread and can affect web pages, applications and even the increasingly popular conversational AI platform software. XSS attacks can lead to redirection to a malicious web page or even a full account takeover.
