Bug #: 29340
Summary: Group names with html entities in them get double
encoded in Special:Userrights
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.19-svn
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Special pages
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
If you create a group with an HTML entity in it, say A&B, the group name is
displayed on Special:Userrights as A&B. This is because the
groupCheckboxes function in SpecialUserrights.php calls htmlspecialchars on the
group name and then calls Xml::checkLabel which does another htmlspecialchars.
I haven't tested this on 1.16.5 but a quick glance at the code shows that the
problem still exists in trunk.
