CyberHat.Online Story for XSS Attack

Midnight Cyber ​​Lab

In a dark server room, Leyla, an ordinary software developer, breathes a sigh of relief after completing the update of the Psono-Client in Bitdefender SecurePass. The message “Update Successful” flashes on her computer screen. But right next to the blue light reflected on the screen, a thin string of code appears:

javascript:alert(document.cookie)

Leyla stares at the screen in surprise for a moment. “What is this?” she mutters.

 The Birth of the Cyber ​​Threat

A friendly looking avatar dons her mask in a dark corner. The malicious hacker named Lina has placed a specially crafted “javascript:” entry in the URL field to trick Psono. With one click, she will be able to access the users’ entire password book. Lina smirks and presses her keyboard, and the attack is ready.

 CyberHat.Online Alarm

At CyberHat.Online’s headquarters in Berlin, Aurora_Feniks’ digital monitors suddenly turn red. “CVE-2025-1987: Psono-Client XSS attack detected!” appears on the screen. Aurora tosses her long black hair back and commands in a calm voice:

"Notify the team! We are intervening immediately."

Gathering the Team

Star_Hat energetically appears at his keyboard:

“Lack of URL sanitization? From what you’ve said, the attack vector is pretty clear.”
Crow quietly approaches his desk and examines the situation:
“I analyzed the code, malicious commands are running in the user context. We need to set up a virtual test environment immediately.”

 Virtual Battlefield

In the team’s shared virtual workspace, Aurora and Crow manipulate lines of code to fix the gap in the Psono-Client’s URL field. The code editor screen is divided into panels:

// Eski sürüm
entry.url = userInput;

// Yeni sürüm – Güvenli hale getiriyoruz
entry.url = sanitizeURL(userInput);

Star_Hat writes on the voice recorder:

“We have strengthened the sanitize function. We are blocking the 'javascript:' protocol.”

 Attack Attempt

Lina triggers the attack again from a remote terminal. A “Bad URL” notification appears in the Psono-Client user interface. The warning that appears on the screen:

“Insecure protocol: javascript:** blocked.”

Lina's face is plunged into darkness as the keyboard she grips angrily vibrates.

 Moment of Victory

The CyberHat.Online team watches the real-time tests turn green, moving from one screen to another. Aurora declares victory:

“The system is clean! No one can access your passwords in the library anymore.”

Crow smiles, placing Star_Hat's hand on his shoulder:

“We have successfully thwarted another attack.”

 Sunrise and a New Beginning

As the sun rises, the Istanbul skyline appears from the windows of the cyber lab. The sunlight reflecting off the windows of the CyberHat.Online building illuminates the tired but proud faces of the team. Aurora_Feniks turns her head slightly and looks at the camera:

"We are always one step ahead. When we see a vulnerability, we do not stop. Ensuring your safety is our greatest duty."

CyberHat.Online has protected you from “javascript:” traps by preventing the CVE-2025-1987 attack. We are here to stop future threats together!
