Users should not be able to create message content that could cause another user to load an undesireable page or undesireable content when the user's message is retrieved.<br>

XSS can also occur when unvalidated user input is used in an HTTP response. In a reflected XSS attack, an attacker can craft a URL with the attack script and post it to another website, email it, or otherwise get a victim to click on it.

<p><b>General Goal(s):</b></p>
For this exercise, you will perform stored and reflected XSS attacks. You will also implement code changes in the web application to defeat these attacks.
