XanXSS is a reflected XSS searching tool (DOM coming soon) that creates payloads based from templates. Unlike other XSS scanners that just run through a list of payloads. XanXSS tries to make the payload unidentifiable, for example:
With XanXSS every payload is different. XanXSS works by running through the payloads until a specified number is found or a timer hits the max time, this prevents it from looping for to long. Some of the features included in XanXSS:

Now lets check those scripts in the HTML of the website:

Options
XanXSS comes complete with the ability to use a proxy, is compatible with proxychains, and allows you to add custom headers. I have provided a full list of options for your convience:

--proxy - And many more

Options
XanXSS comes complete with the ability to use a proxy, is compatible with proxychains, and allows you to add custom headers. I have provided a full list of options for your convience:
usage: xanxss.py [-h] [-u http://test.com/test.php?id=] [-a VERIFY]
[-f AMOUNT] [-t TIME] [-p SCRIPT, [SCRIPT, ...]]
[-F FILE-PATH] [-v] [--proxy TYPE://IP:PORT]
[-H HEADER=VALUE,HEADER:VALUE] [--throttle TIME secs] [-P]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-u http://test.com/test.php?id=, --url http://test.com/test.php?id=
pass a URL to test for XSS vulnerabilities. it is
recommended that you use a URL with a query parameter
-a VERIFY, --amount VERIFY
how many verifications steps to be taken, this will
determine how reliable the payload is. the more
verification steps the more reliable the payload will
be (*default=5)
-f AMOUNT, --find AMOUNT
a ttempt to find this amount of working payloads,
specifying this does not guarantee you will find this
amount of working payloads (*default=25)
-t TIME, --time TIME amount of time in seconds to spend on testing, this
will be used as a timer for the verification
(*default=35s)
-p SCRIPT, [SCRIPT, ...], --payloads SCRIPT, [SCRIPT, ...]
pass a comma separated list of your own payloads, must
contain at least 5 payloads
-F FILE-PATH, --file FILE-PATH
pass a textual file containing payloads one per line,
must contain at least 5 payloads
-v, --verbose run in verbose mode and display more output
(*default=False)
--proxy TYPE://IP:PORT
pass a proxy in the format type://ip:port
-H HEADER=VALUE,HEADER:VALUE, --headers HEADER=VALUE,HEADER:VALUE
add your own custom headers to the request
(*default=connection,user-agent)
--throttle TIME (secs)
throttle each request with a sleep time (*default=0)
-P, --polyglot generate a polyglot script to append to the end of the
running scripts, if there is XSS this should find it
(*default=False)
