Hoss Man commented on HBASE-1299:
---------------------------------

it's been a while since i did anything with JSPs, but as i recall JSP 1.2 had a 
standard taglib for escaping variables when outputing them.

i would suggest that it might be worth while to convert all the JSPs to JSP 2.0 
(aka: *.jspx) where escaping variables on output is the default, because both 
the templates and the output are garunteed to be wellformed XML (or xhtml if 
that's what you're goal is)

> JSPs don't HTML escape literals (ie: table names, region names, start & end 
> keys)

>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 0.19.0, 0.19.1
>            Reporter: Hoss Man
>
> similar to HBASE-1298, the various JSPs included with HBase for monitoring 
> the system don't seem to do any HTML escaping when displaying user entered 
> data which may contain special characters: table names, region names, start 
> Keys, or end Keys
