XSS-Bug in HTML::BBCodeby Taulmarill (Deacon) |
on Aug 14, 2007 at 13:28 UTC ( #632482=perlquestion: print w/replies, xml ) | Need Help?? |
Taulmarill has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
As i was looking for a nice BBCode2HTML converter i came across the following behavior of the Module which i think is a bug which could be exploited to insert JS. [color=blue" onmouseover="this.innerHTML = 'XSS']test[/color] becomes <span style="color: blue" onmouseover="this.innerHTML = 'XSS'">test</span> I used the following script to test this behavior: If i made a mistake or there is a workaround other than disabling the color-tag (and maybe other tags, too), please let me know. Also i would like to hear other suggestions for BBCode2HTML converters (doesn't have to be exactly BBCode, could be something similar) that are known to be safe for public websites.
