    # Description: User must visit any site which is restricted as per
    # forcepoint policy. So that forcepoint web security will show a generic
    # page. While parsing "Domain Name" within generic page forcepoint is not
    # validating Host header, which caused XSS.
    
    Lets assume, while accessing anysite.com, forcepoint web security prevents
    us to go to that website with its custom exception/blocking page. Now
    follow the steps below:
    
    *Steps*:
    
     1. Intercept the traffic while accessing https://anysite.com
     2. Modify the Host header from anysite.com to ">
     <script>alert("evilsite")</script>
