Member Function Documentation

◆ armorLinksCallback()

static Sanitizer::armorLinksCallback (   $matches)
staticprivate

Regex replace callback for armoring links against further processing.

Parameters
array$matches
Returns
string

Definition at line 1154 of file Sanitizer.php.

References $matches.

◆ attributeWhitelist()

static Sanitizer::attributeWhitelist (   $element)
static

Fetch the whitelist of acceptable attributes for a given element name.

Parameters
string$element
Returns
array

Definition at line 1483 of file Sanitizer.php.

References array(), and setupAttributeWhitelist().

Referenced by validateTagAttributes().

◆ checkCss()

static Sanitizer::checkCss (   $value)
static

Pick apart some CSS and check it for forbidden or unsafe structures.

Returns a sanitized string. This sanitized string will have character references and escape sequences decoded and comments stripped (unless it is itself one valid comment, in which case the value will be passed through). If the input is just too evil, only a comment complaining about evilness will be returned.

Currently URL references, 'expression', 'tps' are forbidden.

NOTE: Despite the fact that character references are decoded, the returned string may contain character references given certain clever input strings. These character references must be escaped before the return value is embedded in HTML.

Parameters
string$value
Returns
string

static Sanitizer::decodeCharReferencesAndNormalize (   $text)
static

Decode any character references, numeric or named entities, in the next and normalize the resulting string.

(bug 14952)

This is useful for page titles, not for text to be displayed, MediaWiki allows HTML entities to escape normalization as a feature.

Parameters

Returns
string Still normalized, without entities

References $matches, decodeChar(), and decodeEntity().

◆ decodeEntity()

Otherwise, returns pseudo-entity source (eg "&foo;")

Parameters

◆ decodeTagAttributes()

static Sanitizer::decodeTagAttributes (   $text)

Attribute names are forces to lowercase, character references are decoded to UTF-8 text.

Parameters

◆ escapeClass()

◆ escapeHtmlAllowEntities()

static Sanitizer::escapeHtmlAllowEntities (   $html)
static

Given HTML input, escape with htmlspecialchars but un-escape entities.

This allows (generally harmless) entities like &#160; to survive.

Parameters
string$htmlHTML to escape
Returns
string: escaped input

◆ escapeId()

static Sanitizer::escapeId (   $id,
  $options = array() 
)
static

Given a value, escape it so that it can be used in an id attribute and return it.

This will use HTML5 validation if $wgExperimentalHtmlIds is true, allowing anything but ASCII whitespace. Otherwise it will use HTML 4 rules, which means a narrow subset of ASCII, with bad characters escaped with lots of dots.

To ensure we don't have to bother escaping anything, we also strip ', ", & even if $wgExperimentalIds is true. TODO: Is this the best tactic? We also strip # because it upsets IE, and % because it could be ambiguous if it's part of something that looks like a percent escape (which don't work reliably in fragments cross-browser).

http://www.whatwg.org/html/elements.html#the-id-attribute HTML5 definition of id attribute
Parameters
string$idid to escape
$optionsMixed: string or array of strings (default is array()): 'noninitial': This is a non-initial fragment of an id, not a full id, so don't pay attention if the first character isn't valid at the beginning of an id. Only matters if $wgExperimentalHtmlIds is false. 'legacy': Behave the way the old HTML 4-based ID escaping worked even if $wgExperimentalHtmlIds is used, so we can generate extra anchors and links won't break.
Returns
string

◆ fixTagAttributes()

static Sanitizer::fixTagAttributes (   $text,
  $element 
)
static

Take a tag soup fragment listing an HTML element's attributes and normalize it to well-formed XML, discarding unwanted attributes.

Output is safe for further wikitext processing, with escaping of values that could trigger problems.

  • Normalizes attribute names to lowercase
  • Discards attributes not on a whitelist for the given element
  • Turns broken or invalid entities into plaintext
  • Double-quotes all attribute values
  • Attributes without values are given the name as attribute
  • Double attributes are discarded
  • Unsafe style attributes are discarded
  • Prepends space if there are attributes.

◆ validateEmail()

static Sanitizer::validateEmail (   $addr)
static

Does a string look like an e-mail address?

This validates an email address using an HTML5 specification found at: http://www.whatwg.org/html/states-of-the-type-attribute.html#valid-e-mail-address Which as of 2011-01-24 says:

A valid e-mail address is a string that matches the ABNF production 1*( atext / "." ) "@" ldh-str *( "." ldh-str ) where atext is defined in RFC 5322 section 3.2.3, and ldh-str is defined in RFC 1034 section 3.5.

This function is an implementation of the specification as requested in bug 22449.

Client-side forms will use the same standard validation rules via JS or HTML 5 validation; additional restrictions can be enforced server-side by extensions via the 'isValidEmailAddr' hook.

Note that this validation doesn't 100% match RFC 2822, but is believed to be liberal enough for wide use. Some invalid addresses will still pass validation here.

1.18
Parameters
string$addrE-mail address

bool

◆ validateTag()

static Sanitizer::validateTag (   $params,
  $element 
)
static

Takes attribute names and values for a tag and the tag name and validates that the tag is allowed to be present.

This DOES NOT validate the attributes, nor does it validate the tags themselves. This method only handles the special circumstances where we may want to allow a tag within content but ONLY when it has specific attributes set.

Parameters

bool
