> Project: Sling
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Extensions
> Affects Versions: XSS Protection API 1.0.6
> Reporter: Radu Cotescu
> Assignee: Radu Cotescu
> Fix For: XSS Protection API 1.0.8
>
>
> For the cases when somebody tries to sanitise JSON strings the
> {{XSSAPI#encodeForJSString}} current implementation is too restrictive.
> Assuming one would want to sanitize {{2016-01-21T15:40:30}}, the output of
> the {{XSSAPI#encodeForJSString}} would be
> {noformat}
> 2016\-01\-21T15:40:30
> {noformat}
> which although is a valid String for JavaScript code is not a valid one for
> JSON.
