Check if your browser is vulnerable to the Apple SSL bug
Check if your browser is vulnerable to the Apple SSL bug launched on February 22, 2014 with 118 votes, #67 of 1,100 launches that month and more than 95% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 12 years on.
In plain words
This website tests whether a user's browser is vulnerable to the Apple SSL security flaw discovered in 2014. The tool examines the visitor's operating system and browser version, then attempts to verify if the vulnerability has been patched. It works by sending an invalid cryptographic message to see if the browser correctly rejects it. The test requires JavaScript to be enabled and provides immediate feedback on whether the system is protected against this specific SSL/TLS vulnerability.

Browser-based XSS scanner2024 · github.com · ▲57This is a simple single-file python program that can find basic XSS (cross-site scripting) vulnerabilities in a target url. Most XSS discovery tools use a payload refelection strategy in which payloads are injected in url parameters and the GET response is inspected for places where the payload content is reflected. This is a very low precision XSS detection strategy because most reflection does not support execution. This program uses a different approach, and instead opens the target url in a browser, tests alert(...) payloads directly in the browser context, and listens for an alert being…

http://instantclick.io/ It seems the internet architecture won't bring us instant websites anytime soon. So here is a hack. I released this JS library last month (today is version 2.0 release, fixing v1.0's rough edges), it makes use of HTML5's pushState and preloading to make a website instant. It works like this: before clicking on a link, you'll hover over it. And there's a delay of 200-300 ms between these two events. InstantClick uses this delay to preload a page, when you click on a link it will display instantly in most case. (You can test on the website.) That's…
