Issue
- While the title of a document cannot contain a tag or script in the description section tags and scripts can be published.
Environment
Resolution
- The AntiSamy module filters on specific HTML/CSS fragments and removes suspect JavaScript code from them.
- This means only HTML-enabled input fields require sanitization and normal input fields are not sanitized only escaped when being rendered by the browser. These tags or scripts are not executed and therefore not considered a security risk.
