Evading Web XSS Filters through Word (Microsoft Office and Open Office) in Enterprise Web Applications

This paper sheds light on the hyper linking issues observed during penetration testing of web based enterprise applications. This concept can be used to bypass standard XSS filters by creating a malicious Microsoft word document. The inline hyper linking with malicious code subverts the enterprise web application XSS filters (while conversion mechanism) when rendering is done in the context of browsers. As the code base is structured in a hierarchical manner, we will be laying stress on the vendor based applications.
