A curated collection of cross-site scripting (XSS) vectors and payloads gathered since 2015 from websites, tweets, and books. It includes a notable list of payloads that work without parentheses, aimed at bypassing WAFs and finding XSS vulnerabilities.
Use cases
- find xss payloads for bug bounty hunting
- bypass waf filters during penetration testing
- learn cross-site scripting attack vectors
- reference list of xss payloads without parentheses
- study web security injection techniques
When to choose
- you need a quick reference of XSS vectors including parenthesis-free variants
- you are doing manual penetration testing or bug bounty research on web apps
- you want a community-collected payload list to complement other cheat sheets
When to avoid
- you need up-to-date, actively maintained payloads - the author recommends the PortSwigger XSS cheat sheet instead
- you want an automated XSS scanning tool rather than a static payload list
- you need a tool with a license or formal support
