Exploiting the unexploitable XSS with clickjacking

A UI-redressing walkthrough: an Alphabet Hero game lures the victim into dragging text across origins, dropping an XSS payload into a field of a vulnerable AJAX app and clicking Search. That fires an XSS otherwise unreachable, since the sink sits in neither the URL nor any POST body. Defences: X-Frame-Options, framebusting, blocking cross-origin drag and drop.
