## Requirements
$ARGUMENTS
## Instructions
### 1. XSS Vulnerability Detection
Scan codebase for XSS vulnerabilities using static analysis:
```typescript
interface XSSFinding {
file: string;
line: number;
severity: 'critical' | 'high' | 'medium' | 'low';
type: string;
vulnerable_code: string;
description: string;
fix: string;
cwe: string;
}
class XSSScanner {
private vulnerablePatterns = [
'innerHTML', 'outerHTML', 'document.write',
'insertAdjacentHTML', 'location.href', 'window.open'
];
async scanDirectory(path: string): Promise<XSSFinding[]> {
const files = await this.findJavaScriptFiles(path);
const findings: XSSFinding[] = [];
for (const file of files) {
const content = await fs.readFile(file, 'utf-8');
findings.push(...this.scanFile(file, content));
}
return findings;
}
scanFile(filePath: string, content: string): XSSFinding[] {

findings.push(...this.detectHTMLManipulation(filePath, content));
findings.push(...this.detectReactVulnerabilities(filePath, content));
findings.push(...this.detectURLVulnerabilities(filePath, content));
findings.push(...this.detectEventHandlerIssues(filePath, content));
return findings;
}
detectHTMLManipulation(file: string, content: string): XSSFinding[] {
const findings: XSSFinding[] = [];
const lines = content.split('\n');
lines.forEach((line, index) => {
if (line.includes('innerHTML') && this.hasUserInput(line)) {

description: 'User-controlled data in HTML manipulation creates XSS risk',
fix: 'Use textContent for plain text or sanitize with DOMPurify library',
cwe: 'CWE-79'
});
}
});
return findings;
}

return indicators.some(indicator => line.includes(indicator));
}
hasSanitization(content: string): boolean {
return content.includes('DOMPurify') || content.includes('sanitize');
}
}
```
### 2. Framework-Specific Detection
```typescript
class ReactXSSScanner {
scanReactComponent(code: string): XSSFinding[] {
const findings: XSSFinding[] = [];
// Check for unsafe React patterns
const unsafePatterns = [
'dangerouslySetInnerHTML',
'createMarkup',

fix: 'Apply proper HTML sanitization'
});
}
});
return findings;
}
}
class VueXSSScanner {
scanVueTemplate(template: string): XSSFinding[] {
const findings: XSSFinding[] = [];
if (template.includes('v-html')) {
findings.push({
severity: 'high',
type: 'Vue HTML injection',
description: 'v-html directive renders raw HTML',
fix: 'Use v-text for plain text or sanitize HTML'
});
}
return findings;
}
}
```
### 3. Secure Coding Examples
```typescript
class SecureCodingGuide {
getSecurePattern(vulnerability: string): string {
const patterns = {
html_manipulation: `
// SECURE: Use textContent for plain text
element.textContent = userInput;
// SECURE: Sanitize HTML when needed
import DOMPurify from 'dompurify';
const clean = DOMPurify.sanitize(userInput);
element.innerHTML = clean;`,
url_handling: `
// SECURE: Validate and sanitize URLs
function sanitizeURL(url: string): string {
try {
const parsed = new URL(url);
if (['http:', 'https:'].includes(parsed.protocol)) {
return parsed.href;
}
} catch {}
return '#';
}`,
react_rendering: `
// SECURE: Sanitize before rendering
import DOMPurify from 'dompurify';
const Component = ({ html }) => (
<div dangerouslySetInnerHTML={{
__html: DOMPurify.sanitize(html)
}} />
);`
};
return patterns[vulnerability] || 'No secure pattern available';
}
}
```
### 4. Automated Scanning Integration

```typescript
class XSSReportGenerator {
generateReport(findings: XSSFinding[]): string {
const grouped = this.groupBySeverity(findings);
let report = '# XSS Vulnerability Scan Report\n\n';
report += `Total Findings: ${findings.length}\n\n`;
for (const [severity, issues] of Object.entries(grouped)) {
report += `## ${severity.toUpperCase()} (${issues.length})\n\n`;
for (const issue of issues) {
report += `- **${issue.type}**\n`;
report += ` File: ${issue.file}:${issue.line}\n`;
report += ` Fix: ${issue.fix}\n\n`;
}
}
return report;
}
groupBySeverity(findings: XSSFinding[]): Record<string, XSSFinding[]> {

### 6. Prevention Checklist
**HTML Manipulation**
- Never use innerHTML with user input
- Prefer textContent for text content
- Sanitize with DOMPurify before rendering HTML
- Avoid document.write entirely
**URL Handling**
- Validate all URLs before assignment
- Block javascript: and data: protocols
- Use URL constructor for validation
- Sanitize href attributes
**Event Handlers**
- Use addEventListener instead of inline handlers
- Sanitize all event handler input
- Avoid string-to-code patterns
**Framework-Specific**
- React: Sanitize before using unsafe APIs
- Vue: Prefer v-text over v-html
- Angular: Use built-in sanitization
- Avoid bypassing framework security features
