rhtyd opened a new pull request #2336: CLOUDSTACK-10153: Introduce string API
arg trust validation
URL: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/2336
Adds new API string argument/field validator that validates the string
as untrusted HTML using owasp's java-html-sanitizer. This also adds
a API argument validator type to skip validations, useful for fields
such as certificates and keys.

> Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the
> default.)
> Reporter: Rohit Yadav
> Assignee: Rohit Yadav
> Fix For: Future
>
>
> API requests made using the CloudStack UI does not allow use of special
> characters "<" and ">", however direct API requests made using clis such as
> cloudmonkey may pass unsanitized string API arguments to backend. A backend
> sanitizer can be put in to filter string API argument and remove possible XSS
> scripts using libraries such as https://github.com/OWASP/java-html-sanitizer
