+---+[About the software]+---+
-------------------------------
It combines multiple CSS or Javascript files, removes unnecessary whitespace and comments,
and serves them with gzip encoding and optimal client-side cache headers.
Minify integrated into other Projects/Plugins
* WordPress: WP-Minify
* WordPress: W3 Total Cache
* Zend Framework: View helpers for links/scripts
* Symfony: sfMinifyPlugin
* Moodle: minify
* Yii: minscript Extension

+---+[About the exploit]+---+
-----------------------------
DOM Based XSS (or as it is called in some texts, “type-0 XSS”) is an XSS attack wherein the attack
payload is executed as a result of modifying the DOM “environment” in the victim’s browser used
by the original client side script, so that the client side code runs in an “unexpected” manner.
That is, the page itself (the HTTP response that is) does not change, but the client side code
contained in the page executes differently due to the malicious modifications that have occurred
in the DOM environment.
------------------------------
+---+[Proof of Concept: ]+---+
------------------------------
A specially formed URL could cause a user's web browser to run arbitrary Javascript on a
domain where the Minify Builder application is accessible. If a host serves the "Minify
URI Builder" application at http://example.org/min/builder/, the host is vulnerable

By adding "#g=<script>alert("XSSed ");</script>" after /min/builder/ the attacker can
execute an arbitrary code, in this case it's the classical alert box.
Example: http://localhost/min/builder/#g=<script>alert(document.cookie)</script>
This shows the current sessions cookies which might be sent to third parties' attacker pages.
