DOM Based XSS (or as it is called in some texts, “type-0 XSS”) is an XSS attack wherein the attack payload is executed as a result of modifying the DOM “environment” in the victim’s browser used by the original client side script, so that the client side code runs in an “unexpected” manner. That is, the page itself (the HTTP response that is) does not change, but the client side code contained in the page executes differently due to the malicious modifications that have occurred in the DOM environment.

Coincidentally, HTML safe is not safe from HTML Injection or "XSS" attacks. The name is deceiving. Some folks believe the raw() helper to be different than the html_safe String method. raw() is actually a wrapper for html_safe and essentially ensures exceptions are handled when the expected value is nil.

<p> When registering, enter your JavaScript tag such as <%= %{<script>alert("ohai")</script>} %> in the First Name field. Upon login the header navigation bar will echo "Welcome" + your JS code. You can have your XSS code point the victim to a <b><%= link_to "BeEF server", "http://beefproject.com", {:style => "color: rgb(69, 126, 136)" } %></b> and have some fun as well.

Often developers error on the side of using "html_safe" versus "raw" with the idea being one is safer than the other. In this example, simply removing the .html_safe call would both eliminate the attack (by default, Rails 3.x html encodes these dangerous chars). Rails 2.x would require that any potentially malicious content is wrapped within an h() tag. Potentially malicious content should be thought of anything that is dynamically generated. Also, it is important to note that if for some reason you wanted to render HTML code in literal form, you can use things like sanitize() or strip_tags().
