Henri Yandell closed LANG-439.
------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Closing as LANG-505 has given the user the ability to customize their escaping,
and LANG-515 drives deciding what our standard default pattern should be.
> StringEscapeUtils.escapeHTML() does not escape chars (0x00-0x20)
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: LANG-439
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-439
> Project: Commons Lang
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Environment: java5
> Reporter: Pavel Sivolobtchik
> Fix For: 3.0
>
>
> I encountered this problem when I sent html from the server to a client using
> AjaxRequest. HTML was escaped wrapped in CDATA. I thought it was pretty safe.
> See my xml fragment below:
> //------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <ajax-fragment>
> <html-rows>
> <![CDATA[
> <div style="padding-left: 1px;" class="columnContent4 column4">
> <span column-id="Message" class="cellContent"
> onmouseover="w12450823.onDwell(event);
> w12450823.onCellSelectionOnMouseOver(event);"
> onclick="w12450823.onCellSelectionOnClick(event)" >May 29 10:48:29 rdia643
> su: - 2 nitroqa-nss</span></div>
> ]]>
> </html-rows>
> </ajax-fragment>
> //------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
> However in FF2 there was js error:
> //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Error: not well-formed
> Source Code:
> <span column-id="Message" class="cellContent "
> onmouseover="w12450823.onDwell(event);
> w12450823.onCellSelectionOnMouseOver(event); "
> onclick="w12450823.onCellSelectionOnClick(event)" >May 29 10:48:29 rdia643
> su: - 2 nitroqa-nss</span></div
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------^
> I figured out that StringEscapeUtils.escapeHTML() did not escape one of the
> characters. it was a '\b'(ascii 8).
> I had to change to org.apache.commons.lang.Entities.excape() method:
> public void escape(Writer writer, String str) throws IOException {
> int len = str.length();
> for (int i = 0; i < len; i++) {
> char c = str.charAt(i);
> String entityName = this.entityName(c);
> if (entityName == null) {
> if ((c < 0x20 && c != 9 && c != 10 && c != 13) || c >>
> 0x7F) {
> writer.write("&#");
> writer.write(Integer.toString(c, 10));
> writer.write(';');
> }
> else {
> writer.write(c);
> }
> }
> else {
> writer.write('&');
> writer.write(entityName);
> writer.write(';');
> }
> }
> }
> //---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
> It can be tested with unittest:
> import java.io.Reader;
> import java.io.StringReader;
> import junit.framework.TestCase;
> import org.apache.commons.lang.StringEscapeUtils;
> import org.jdom.input.SAXBuilder;
> public class StringEscapeUtilsTest extends TestCase {
> public void testPR73092() throws Exception {
> StringBuilder test = new StringBuilder(50);
> for (int i = 0; i <= 50; i++) {
> test.append((char)i);
> }
> StringBuilder result = new StringBuilder("<test>\n<![CDATA[\n");
> result.append(StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml(test.toString()));
> result.append("\n]]>\n</test>\n");
> validate(new StringReader(result.toString()));
> result = new StringBuilder("<test>\n<![CDATA[\n");
> result.append(test.toString());
> result.append("\n]]>\n</test>\n");
> try {
> validate(new StringReader(result.toString()));
> fail("expected to blow up");
> }
> catch (Exception e) {
> //
> }
> }
> /** make sure that xml is well-formed */
> private static void validate(Reader xmlSource) throws Exception {
> SAXBuilder saxBuilder = new SAXBuilder();
> saxBuilder.build(xmlSource);
> }
