💥 CVE-2020-11023 Scanner: Find and Conquer XSS Before It's Too Late! 💥

Static Analysis No Dynamic Execution CVE-2020-11023

Are you haunted by the specter of Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities lurking in your JavaScript code? Worried about CVE-2020-11023 leaving your web applications open to attack? Fear no more! The CVE-2020-11023 Scanner is here to help you find and conquer those pesky vulnerabilities!

This fast and reliable static analysis tool is designed to scan JavaScript files and web pages for the telltale signs of XSS vulnerabilities, especially those related to CVE-2020-11023. It focuses on jQuery versions before 3.5.0, which are known to be susceptible.

Disclaimer: Remember, this tool performs static analysis only. It doesn't execute any code, so it can't guarantee exploitability with the same certainty as dynamic analysis. Always manually review the findings and perform further testing to confirm the actual risk!

✨ Killer Features:

  • 🔎 Versatile Scanning:
    • URLs: Crawls web pages, analyzing both inline and external JavaScript files.
    • Local Files & Directories: Recursively scans local directories for .js files.
  • 🕵️‍♂️ Vulnerable jQuery Detection: Pinpoints jQuery versions known to be affected by CVE-2020-11023.
  • 🚨 Dangerous Pattern Identification: Flags the use of potentially dangerous jQuery DOM manipulation methods like .html(), .append(), .after(), .before(), and .replaceWith() when used with potentially unsafe inputs.
  • 🔍 Unsafe Input Source Tracking: Detects the use of potentially untrusted data sources like window.location, document.cookie, and more.
  • 🚀 Application Code Focus: Skips common third-party libraries (jQuery, Bootstrap, etc.) by default to reduce noise and zero in on your code.
  • 🌐 Deep Scanning (Optional): Recursively crawls linked JavaScript files on web pages for a more thorough analysis.
  • 📃 Clear and Concise Reporting: Generates a report highlighting potential vulnerabilities with details about their location and severity.

🛠️ Requirements

  • Python 3.x
  • requests library (pip install requests)
  • beautifulsoup4 library (pip install beautifulsoup4)
  • packaging library (pip install packaging)

⚡ Quick Installation

  1. Clone this repository:

    root@kitploit:~
    git clone <your-repository-url>
    cd <your-repo-name>
    
  2. Install the dependencies:

    root@kitploit:~
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    

🚀 Usage

Command-line arguments:

  • --url <URL>: Specifies the target URL to scan.
  • --file <path>: Specifies a local file or directory path to scan.
  • --deep: Enables deep scanning for URLs (recursive crawling of linked JavaScript files).

Examples:

  • Scan a website (with deep scanning):

    root@kitploit:~
    python scan.py --url [https://www.example.com](https://www.example.com) --deep
    
  • Scan a local JavaScript file:

    root@kitploit:~
    python scan.py --file /path/to/your/file.js
    
  • Scan a local directory recursively:

    root@kitploit:~
    python scan.py --file /path/to/your/directory

🛡️ Recommendations
Update jQuery: If a vulnerable jQuery version is detected, update to the latest version (>= 3.5.0) immediately.
Sanitize Input: Thoroughly sanitize any user-supplied or untrusted data before using it with potentially dangerous DOM manipulation methods. Consider using libraries like DOMPurify.
Use .text() Wisely: If you only need to insert text content, use the .text() method instead of .html() or other methods that could interpret input as HTML.
Manual Review: Always manually review the findings of this script to determine the actual risk and rule out false positives.
