Guided workflow to identify, validate, and document reflected, stored, and DOM-based XSS using Burp Suite (scanner, repeater, intruder, DOM Invader).
Practical, step-by-step guidance for security testers to find and validate cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities using Burp Suite Professional. Covers proxy setup, mapping, Repeater-based reflection checks, Intruder for stored XSS, DOM Invader for client-side issues, CSP analysis, bypass techniques, and reporting reproducible findings. Includes payload examples and remediation recommendations.
Use this skill during authorized penetration tests, bug bounty assessments, or vulnerability validation tasks when you need to confirm XSS findings, assess CSP effectiveness, or perform thorough client- and server-side XSS analysis. Not for unauthorized scanning.
Inferred compatibility with security-focused agent tooling and platforms that support CLI/scripted workflows (e.g., Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, Codex CLI, Cursor, Gemini CLI).
XSS vulnerability testing skill for Burp Suite-based security assessments. The SKILL.md is comprehensive with 7-step workflow, CSP bypass techniques, and output format. The bundled agent.py script performs automated reflection discovery, character encoding tests, stored XSS testing, and CSP analysis. Script failed at runtime because it requires a base_url argument (expected for a pentesting tool needing a target). No security concerns — no hardcoded creds, no destructive commands, no exfiltration.
The skill includes XSS payload examples (cookie theft, keylogger) as instructional content for authorized penetration testing — this is appropriate context. The script is well-structured for its purpose but requires a live target to demonstrate functionality.
