Changeset [9415935902f120a9bac0bfce7129725a0db38ed3] by Michael Koziarski

October 7th, 2009 @ 09:31 PM

Switch to on-by-default XSS escaping for rails.

This consists of:

  • String#html_safe! a method to mark a string as 'safe'
  • ActionView::SafeBuffer a string subclass which escapes anything unsafe which is concatenated to it
  • Calls to String#html_safe! throughout the rails helpers
  • a 'raw' helper which lets you concatenate trusted HTML from non-safety-aware sources (e.g. presantized strings in the DB)
  • New ERB implementation based on erubis which uses a SafeBuffer instead of a String

Hat tip to Django for the inspiration.
