# XSS DOM con innerHTML y location.search

Notas de XSS DOM con innerHTML y location.search para laboratorios de PortSwigger Web Security Academy, incluido el flujo de explotación, pruebas de payloads, validación con Burp Suite y contexto de remediación.

### DOM XSS en el sumidero InnerHTML usando la fuente location.search

Vulnerabilidad DOM XSS en la función de búsqueda del blog. El código recupera el valor de `location.search` y lo inserta directamente en el DOM mediante `innerHTML`, lo que permite inyectar JavaScript y ejecutarlo cuando el valor proviene de la URL.

**Fragmento de código observado**

```javascript
function doSearchQuery(query) {
    document.getElementById('searchMessage').innerHTML = query;
}
var query = (new URLSearchParams(window.location.search)).get('search');
if(query) {
    doSearchQuery(query);
}
```

**Cargas útiles probadas**

* Carga útil simple (no interpretada): / `<script>alert("XSS")</script>`
* Prueba para insertar un elemento de imagen:/ `<img src="test"</img>`/ (esto no activa la ejecución de scripts ya que no hay ningún atributo de evento presente)

Forzar un error de carga para activar un `onerror` manejador:/ `<img src=0 onerror=alert("XSS")>` / (Esta carga útil usa el `onerror` atributo de evento para ejecutar `alerta` (cuando falla la carga de la imagen)

```javascript
<img src=0 onerror=alert("xss")>
```

<figure><img src="https://754079710-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fl4EVJpcOrsgjSGsLI7p2%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-8c45da08fcdb3080fc6cb4f6629f73c9ec937ec0%2F%7B3A8EB142-F97F-4D96-9104-AFF814B2380C%7D.png?alt=media" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

El script afecta directamente `innerHTML` con la `parámetro de búsqueda` el valor de la URL; por lo tanto, fragmentos HTML que contengan controladores de eventos (p. ej., `onerror`) o etiquetas ejecutables pueden provocar la ejecución de código. El `<img src=0 onerror=alert("XSS")>` carga útil provoca un error de carga y ejecuta `alert("XSS")`, lo que demuestra la vulnerabilidad DOM XSS.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://hacking-notes.jord4n.pro/es/web/xss/dom-xss-with-innerhtml-and-location-search.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
