Overview
The Microsoft Anti-Cross Site Scripting Library V3.1 (Anti-XSS V3.1) is an encoding library designed to help developers protect their ASP.NET web-based applications from XSS attacks. It differs from most encoding libraries in that it uses the white-listing technique -- sometimes referred to as the principle of inclusions -- to provide protection against XSS attacks. This approach works by first defining a valid or allowable set of characters, and encodes anything outside this set (invalid characters or potential attacks). The white-listing approach provides several advantages over other encoding schemes.
New features in this version of the Microsoft Anti-Cross Site Scripting Library include:
- An expanded white list that supports more languages
- Performance improvements
- Performance data sheets (in the online help)
- Support for Shift_JIS encoding for mobile browsers
- A sample application
- Security Runtime Engine (SRE) HTTP module
- HTML Sanitization methods to strip dangerous HTML scripts
