XssRequestFilter is a Spring-based library designed to mitigate Cross-site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in web applications by filtering malicious scripts from incoming requests. Utilizing the @XssFilter annotation, developers can easily implement XSS protection on controller endpoints, supporting both form data and JSON requests, while allowing for custom filter rules. The tool employs a default blacklist of regex patterns to identify and sanitize harmful inputs, enhancing the overall security posture of web applications.
