[security] Persistent XSS issue (Opera and older IE)

.mario.mario
edited July 2009 in Vanilla 1.0 Help
Vanilla 1.1.8 transforms this BBCode to an image tag executing JavaScript w/o user interaction. Apparently Vanilla 2.0 Beta is not affected.

[img]javascript:alert(1)//[/img] // becomes <img src="javascript:alert(1)">

A valid fix would forbid protocols other than /^https?:\/\// (Regex).

Greetings,

    I think is better to tell about this security issue to "bbcode extension" developer. Clean Vanilla doesn't support it. [b]bbcode[/b]
