Web Hacking Expert - Full-Stack Exploitation Mastery - XSS through Image – Part 2

The video tutorial demonstrates how to exploit a security vulnerability in web applications by uploading an SVG file containing a script. The instructor, David, explains the process of uploading an SVG file with a script to a web application, highlighting the security risks associated with SVG files. He then demonstrates how to execute an attack by sending a link to the SVG file to another user, resulting in a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of understanding SVG file security risks and how attackers can exploit them.

What is the significance of the statement 'this is a perfectly legitimate SVG file' in the context of security?

What happens when the link to the uploaded SVG file is accessed by another user?

How does the demonstration illustrate the concept of an access attack?
