Now a days, people are mostly dependent on internet for many things such as online shopping, bank transactions, internet surfing and many more. Also, adoption of web in areas like communications and productivity via the Internet has outpaced user security awareness. Technologies like smart devices and high-speed mobile networks have allowed for an always-connected vector of malware, fraud, virus, spyware and other complications. The rapid digitalization of the world has increased the usage of online services due to which vast amount of information is shared over the internet. The web-based applications that accept critical information from users stock this information in databases. These applications and the databases are susceptible to all kinds of information security threats due to being accessible through the Internet. Regardless of intent or cause, the consequences of a web threat may vandalize both individuals and organizations. The threats include attacks such as Cross Site Scripting (XSS), Denial of Service Attack, SQL Injection attacks, Phishing attacks, Man in the Middle attack, Brute force attacks, water hole attacks and many more. Among these, SQLi and XSS are the two major web application attacks. This paper focuses on the survey of various approaches used to detect SQLi and Cross Site Scripting (XSS)attacks.
