Detection Guidance

To detect this reflected XSS vulnerability in Ad Inserter, inspect web traffic for suspicious input parameters in HTTP requests. Check for unusual JavaScript execution in browser console when accessing the plugin's interface. Review server logs for unexpected input patterns like script tags or event handlers in query strings.
