XSS – or cross-site scripting – is one of the most common vulnerabilities in web applications. It has been on the OWASP Top 10 list (the list of the most critical security risks to web applications) for a while now. So let’s figure out together how your browser can acquire and execute a script from a third-party website, and what this may lead to (spoiler: your cookies could get stolen, for example). And while we’re at it, we’ll talk about ways you can protect yourself from XSS.

With the .NET5 release further development of some projects was questionable due to the complexity of porting. One can abandon small outdated libraries or find a replacement. But it’s hard to throw away Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.dll. Microsoft doesn’t plan to add compatibility with .NET Core/5+, so in this article we focus on creating Word files with Open XML SDK.

Traffic analysis is a very important stage of penetration testing. In packets transmitted over the network, you can find many interesting things, for example, passwords for accessing various resources and other valuable data. To intercept and analyze traffic, sniffers are used, which humanity has invented a great many. Today I will talk about several popular sniffers for Windows.
