Dave Newton commented on WW-4171:
---------------------------------
[~rgielen] Hmm, OK, never mind then. Are issues like the display tag thing
caused by type conversion, then?
> getText methods are not documented as evaluating OGNL

> Key: WW-4171
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-4171
> Project: Struts 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 2.3.15.1
> Reporter: Coverity Security Research Laboratory
> Assignee: Lukasz Lenart
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: security
> Fix For: 2.3.16

>
> The methods below evaluate OGNL as their first parameter. However they are
> not documented as evaluating OGNL. We have observed this occurring in one
> project and are contacting the affected vendors.
> com.opensymphony.xwork2.TextProviderSupport.getText(String, String[])
> com.opensymphony.xwork2.TextProviderSupport.getText(String, List<?>)
> com.opensymphony.xwork2.TextProviderSupport.getText(String)
> These methods are then used by ActionSupport (via its getText methods). None
> of these methods are documented as evaluating OGNL either.
> This issue is recommending that all of these methods are documented as
> evaluating OGNL since this may come as a surprise to some developers.
