Cross-site Script Inclusion

Last updated

What is Cross-site Script Inclusion?

Cross-site script inclusion, also known as JSON vulnerability, can allow an attacker's website to read data from a JSON API. The attack works on older browsers by overriding built-in JavaScript object constructors, and then including an API URL using a <script> tag. Angular's HttpClient library recognizes this convention and automatically strips the string ")]}',\n" from all responses before further parsing.
