Bug #: 39735
Summary: WLMMobile: HTML injection in HTML templating system
Product: WikiLoves Monuments Mobile
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
While testing the long filenames issue, I noticed that the super-long
Belorussian monument name actually contains a literal "<br />" tag.
This is being output unescaped into the app's HTML document, appearing as a
line break. This is an HTML injection vector which is at best fragile and at
worst a security danger.
It looks like the <%= foo %> syntax in the template doesn't do any escaping...
this should be fixed, or else explicit HTML escaping needs to be added to
everything we output.
