    <p>I work at Security Compass and am the lead developer for the Exploit Me tools. </p> <p>You're right that XSS Me is reporting a warning because these attack strings seem (to XSS Me) to have come back from the server completely unencoded. Another parser/JavaScript engine (like IE 6/7/8, Safari, or Chrome) might execute this code even though Firefox's parser and JavaScript engine don't. </p> <p>XSS Me submits two requests: </p> <ul> <li>One request where we detect exploitation using FireFox's JavaScript engine, which we call "errors"</li> <li>A second request where we detect exploitation by simply grepping for the attack string in the HTML response page</li> </ul> <p>The warning you're getting is caused by this second request. </p> <p>I can help you get to the root cause of this issue if you can do the following:</p> <ol> <li><p>Use packet sniffing software (i.e. Wireshark <a href="http://www.wireshark.org/" rel="noreferrer">http://www.wireshark.org/</a>) to detect the attack string rather than Charles. Sometimes proxies have a way of modifying or otherwise altering requests</p></li> <li><p>In Firefox, can you go to tools->addons and disable all the extensions except XSS Me? That way you can be sure no other extension is changing the response (or request) before it gets to XSS Me.</p></li> <li><p>View the source of the response page in Firefox to see if the unencoded string appears</p></li> </ol> <p>If you'd like to send me an email (tom@securitycompass.com) with those results I'd be happy to help figure this out. If it's a bug in XSS Me (which I certainly hope not) then I can patch it and get a new build out. </p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Tom</p>

    2. COWe hope to get an "experimental" (read: unreviewed) release up on addons.mozilla.org this week. I'll post a link when it's up :-). The review process should be quick but isn't something we control.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
