XSS Relocation Attacks through Word Hyperlinking
Enterprise applications that let users upload a Word document and preview it as HTML convert the document's hyperlinks without filtering them. A hyperlink carrying an inline javascript: payload therefore survives the doc-to-HTML conversion and fires in the browser, giving stored XSS and CSRF. Tested against ZOHO Writer, Microsoft Office Live Workspace and Google Docs.
