(TBA)

Storage Object

HTML 5 Storage objects [6][7][8 ] can be considered an indirect source, since they can be used to store values from direct sources and use them later insecurely.

Indirect source objects are:

  • localStorage

  • sessionStorage

  • IndexedDB (mozIndexedDB, webkitIndexedDB, msIndexedDB)

  • Database (Safari Only)

Server Response Sources

Previously server side stored data could be used by an attacker to send untrusted input to Javascript.
