Bug #: 30589
Summary: URLGetParameters: non-alphanumeric data coming from
URL gets badly mangled
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
URL: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:UrlGetParamete
rs
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: [other]
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:UrlGetParameters
When getting data from the URL, this extension calls rawurlencode() on the data
before writing it to the page. This makes it safe - scary things like < and >
don't get through. But it mangles stuff! If something is URL encoded, it needs
to be URL decoded and then HTML encoded.
Consequently, it should be doing the equivalent of htmlencode(urldecode($foo)).
Last checkin was by "yaron", so CCing both people of that name in this Bugzilla
:-) (Sorry if you are the wrong yaron...)
The other people mentioned on the extension's page are "S.O.E. Ansems" and
Ankit Garg", but I can't find either of them in this Bugzilla.
