[QUOTE="Jan Willy, post: 1053897, member: 80838"] Two interesting sites about blocking XSS : [MEDIA=reddit]uBlockOrigin/comments/tihwf5[/MEDIA] [MEDIA=reddit]uBlockOrigin/comments/bxpx00[/MEDIA] Two relevant quotes: [I]1. With medium or hard mode in uBO, all third-party XSS, which is often the case to attack behind the scene, are blocked unless the very vulnerable site is somehow 3p-nooped. First-party XSS is possible, but for this the attacker has to make you to click a crafted link. Even then, a simple practice of isolating browser profile, i.e. don’t browse random sites with the same browser profile you logged into something, protects you from almost all XSS damage – now what the attacker can do will be at most some mischief. 2. AFAIK uBO doesn't have a dedicated XSS protection because blocking third party resources inherently protects you. XSS = Cross-Site-Scripting = Third-Party-Scripting = Loads stuff from unknown third party = well blockable with uBO.[/I] [/QUOTE]
