causes a victim to supply dangerous content to a vulnerable web application, which is then reflected back to the victim and executed by the web browser.

URLs constructed in this manner constitute the core of many phishing schemes, whereby an attacker convinces a victim to visit a URL that refers to a vulnerable site. After the site reflects the attacker's content back to the victim, the content is executed by the victim's browser.
