How does a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack work?

What will be an ideal response?

In a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack, the threat actor takes advantage of web applications that accept user input without validating it before presenting it back to the user. An attacker can take advantage of this in an XSS attack by tricking a valid website into feeding a malicious script to another user's web browser, which will then execute it.
