Wireless Security Challenges
Wireless networks possess some additional security challenges that don't exist in traditional, because the communication can be easily is propagated through an uncontrolled environment (you can intercept all communication using a radio antenna; in wired communication is harder). The two main problems of wireless communication are:
XML Injection
XML injections are simple vulnerabilities, in which a server doesn't check for user input; this input will then be badly interpreted by the server's XML interpreter.
XSS Vulnerabilities
XSS (or Cross Site Scripting) vulnerabilities envolve running illegal code (scripts), introduced by an attacker, in the victim's browser (typically JavaScript). XSS vulnerabilities are some of the more common web app security issues (according to OWASP, Top3 vulnerability in 2013, Top7 in 2017).
