The Microsoft Anti-Cross Site Scripting Library v3.1 (Anti-XSS v3.1) is an encoding library designed to help developers protect their ASP.NET web-based applications from XSS attacks.  It differs from most encoding libraries in that it uses the white-listing technique — sometimes referred to as the principle of inclusions — to provide protection against XSS attacks.  This approach works by first defining a valid or allowable set of characters, and encodes anything outside this set (invalid characters or potential attacks).  The white-listing approach provides several advantages over other encoding schemes.

New features in version 3.1 of the Microsoft Anti-Cross Site Scripting Library include:

  • An expanded white list that supports more languages
  • Performance improvements
  • Performance data sheets (in the online help)
  • Support for Shift_JIS encoding for mobile browsers
  • A sample application
  • Security Runtime Engine (SRE) HTTP module
  • HTML Sanitization methods to strip dangerous HTML scripts
