Member Function Documentation

◆ armorFrenchSpaces()

static Sanitizer::armorFrenchSpaces	(	$text,
		$space = `' '`
	)

static

Armor French spaces with a replacement character.

Since: 1.32

Parameters

string	$text	Text to armor
string	$space	Space character for the French spaces, defaults to ' '

Returns: string Armored text

Definition at line 1172 of file Sanitizer.php.

◆ 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 1751 of file Sanitizer.php.

◆ 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

Definition at line 1058 of file Sanitizer.php.

References $value.

(T16952)

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

Definition at line 1679 of file Sanitizer.php.

◆ decodeCharReferencesCallback()

static Sanitizer::decodeCharReferencesCallback ( $matches )

static

Encode an attribute value for HTML output.

Parameters

Definition at line 1149 of file Sanitizer.php.

◆ escapeClass()

static Sanitizer::escapeClass ( $class )

static

Given a value, escape it so that it can be used as a CSS class and return it.

Todo:: For extra validity, input should be validated UTF-8.

See also: https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html Valid characters/format

Parameters

string $class

Returns: string

Definition at line 1411 of file Sanitizer.php.

◆ escapeHtmlAllowEntities()

Definition at line 1426 of file Sanitizer.php.

References $html.

◆ escapeId()

static Sanitizer::escapeId	(	$id,
		$options = `[]`
	)

static

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

This will use HTML5 validation, allowing anything but ASCII whitespace.

To ensure we don't have to bother escaping anything, we also strip ', ". 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).

Deprecated:: since 1.30, use one of this class' escapeIdFor*() functions

Parameters

string	$id	Id to escape
string \| array	$options	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.

Returns: string

References $options, and array().

◆ escapeIdForAttribute()

static Sanitizer::escapeIdForAttribute	(	$id,

Parameters

array	$attribs
array	$whitelist	List of allowed attribute names

Todo:

Check for legal values where the DTD limits things.

Check for unique id attribute :P

Definition at line 811 of file Sanitizer.php.

◆ validateCodepoint()

static Sanitizer::validateCodepoint ( $codepoint )

staticprivate

Returns true if a given Unicode codepoint is a valid character in both HTML5 and XML.

Parameters

int $codepoint

Returns: bool

Definition at line 1643 of file Sanitizer.php.

◆ 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 T24449.

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.

Since: 1.18

Parameters

string $addr E-mail address

Returns: bool

Definition at line 2117 of file Sanitizer.php.

◆ 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

string	$params
string	$element

Returns: bool

Definition at line 755 of file Sanitizer.php.

References $params.

◆ validateTagAttributes()

static Sanitizer::validateTagAttributes	(	$attribs,
		$element
	)

static

Take an array of attribute names and values and normalize or discard illegal values for the given element type.

Discards attributes not on a whitelist for the given element
Unsafe style attributes are discarded
Invalid id attributes are re-encoded

Parameters

array	$attribs
string	$element

Returns: array

Todo:

Check for legal values where the DTD limits things.

Check for unique id attribute :P
