Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) Vulnerability
Also known as "I'm a Bad Guy, Don't You Know?"
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) is like being a bad guy at a snack party. You sneak in some malicious code and hope no one notices. But, just like how the host always notices you eating all the cookies, our security experts are always on the lookout for sneaky script kiddies.
- Server-side scripting: When the server does all the heavy lifting and your code is the real star.
- Client-side scripting: When the client does all the work, and you just sit back and enjoy the free snacks.
- Server-side scripting is like the responsible adult, while client-side scripting is like the party animal.
So, don't be that guy. Keep your code clean, and your snacks safe.
