XSS Rays

Xss rays would certainly be at the top of my list,  XSS rays includes a scanner, XSS reverser and a DOM inspection tool. Although it does makes the browser a bit unstable when you are performing heavy scans, However it's really handy in detecting XSS attacks. It's a perfect replacement to XSSME that is used in firefox for detecting XSS attacks.

HPP Finder

HPP finder is capable of easily detecting Http Parameter Pollution attacks. HTTP Parameter Pollution is newest type of web application attacks, Their is not very much information available on it as compared to other attacks such as XSS, SQL injection.
