Understanding XSS Payload Detection

XSS payload detection is the process of identifying and preventing cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks by detecting malicious code injected into a website or web application. It involves monitoring and analyzing incoming data to identify and block harmful scripts that could exploit vulnerabilities in the application and compromise user data or system security. Techniques such as input validation, output encoding, and the use of web application firewalls are commonly employed to detect and mitigate XSS payloads.
