Security Compass has a couple of nifty plugins to test for XSS and SQL injection for firefox-  They have a list of the 
most common tests and you can set it up to scan the site as you are using it-  You can find them on the firefox plugins 
site.    Not sure how automatable that is.

Subject: Help to Automate XSS and SQL

Hello Friends,

               Greetings of the day !! .. Recently I had carried out
manual test with XSS and SQL. I have tried quite a lot of the
variants.. but later on it was detected that it has XSS and SQL
vulnerability.

Since there are so many variants of XSS and SQL and cannot be tried of
all those in a limited time span. What should I do to make sure that
the site doesn't have XSS and SQL.

Should I try with every SQL and XSS string. and use a automated brute
force attack .. If yes .. can anyone suggest me some good tools that I
can run from windows or browser ( similar to tamper data ,greasy
monkey or any other windows tools ).

Note : please don't suggest perl scripts or linux related scripts even
though I would love to work upon :(  Coz this is a windows
environment.


Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences :)

regards,
Vinox
