hackademix.net » NoScript’s Anti-XSS Filters Partially Ported to IE8

And there I started smiling: you realize, guys, that those listed “on sites like XSSed.com” are not “XSS vulnerabilities” which will “stop working in IE8″, but just minimal exploit test cases —

Anyway, such a feature being deployed as a built in of a popular browser, rather than as an add-on for an awesome browser, will likely keep script kiddies busy a while, maybe taking a filter evasion crash course. I just hope it won’t give some site owners an alibi not to fix their bugs, though, putting a “This site is best viewed with IE8” badge near to their McAfee’s Hackersafe logo.
