Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) is the method of code injection whereby a malicious user injects code (html, javascript) which would get executed from the site on the users browser. When Google finds this, it will show up a warning message in its search results if the users had searched for a specific term for which your site is indexed. This can harm your user base.
XSS attacks are classified as
- Persistent attacks
- Non-persistent attacks
