Visit https://www.learnboost.com/settings/network/search and search for fro. My entry will trigger the XSS payload.

Impact
I now have stored XSS that triggers whenever someone searches for fro. If I were to map the payload to a very common search term (e.g. aa) that would increase the likelihood that my payload would fire.
