Ra.2 - Blackbox DOM XSS Scanner
Introduction
Ra.2: A DOM-based XSS scanner, for the rest of us!
Ra.2 - Blackbox DOM-based XSS Scanner is our approach towards finding a solution to the problem of detecting DOM-based Cross-Site Scripting vulnerabilities in Web-Application automatically, effectively and fast. Ra.2 is basically a lighweight Mozilla Firefox Add-on that uses a very simple yet effective and unique approach to detect most DOM-based XSS vulnerabilities, if not all. Being a browser-add on it is a session-aware tool which can scan a web-application that requires authentication. Ra.2 uses custom collected list of XSS vectors which has been heavily modified to be compatible with its scanning technology. The add-on also implements basic browser intrumentation to simulate a human interaction to trigger some hard to detect DOM-based XSS conditions.
Features
False positive free by design: Vulnerable URLs are saved in DB, if and only if, our payload is executed successfully by the browser. Hence marked exploitable. If isn't false-positive, it's a bug! Report us :-)
Large collection of injection vectors, includes “modified” R’Snake’s vectors as well.
Supports transforming Unicode characters for testing content aware application.
Automatically handles JavaScript obfuscation/compression, as it relies on native interpreter.
Fast and light-weight.
Pretty easy learning curve. Point-n-Click.
Basic browser automation support: Simulates some of the browser events that require human interaction to trigger the XSS condition. Example:```html Click here
Unknown end tag for
html ``` and similar scenarios.
Centralized reporting: Suitable for enterprise standard multi-user environment.
