What is the difference between stored XSS and reflected XSS?
Difference between stored XSS attacks and reflected XSS attacks :

Stored XSS Attacks Reflected XSS Attacks
The attacks where the injected scripts are permanently stored on the target servers are called stored XSS attacks. The attacks where the user has to send the request first, then start running on the victim's browser, are called reflected XSS attacks.
In stored XSS attacks, the victim retrieves the server's malicious script when requesting the stored information. The reflected XSS attacks reflect results from the browser to the user who sent the request.
