Cross-Site Scripting Attacks in Social Network APIs

The authors name Cross-API Scripting: XSS carried through RESTful social-network APIs, where the network and its third-party apps each assume the other escapes user data. A fuzzer injected test vectors into configured API endpoints and flagged responses that echoed them or came back ill-formed, finding flaws in eleven social networks and in 107 of 143 apps examined.
