We also had a release -candidate, 0.2.2-rc1, that was released on the 30th of January 2005. - -I (Ulf) am sorry for this long delay, but I lost interest in kses for a -while and worked on auditing C/C++ code for buffer overflows and format -string bugs in the Debian Security Audit Project instead -( http://www.debian.org/security/audit/ ). - -This version has the following changes: - -- Richard contributed an additional object-oriented kses version for - PHP 5, which takes advantage of that PHP version's improved object - orientation. You can find it in the oop/ directory. - -- Richard added RemoveProtocol(), RemoveProtocols() and SetProtocols() - methods to both object-oriented kses versions. This closes SourceForge - bug #892477. - -- Richard also did other smaller changes to the object-oriented kses - versions. See oop/oop.kses.changelog.txt for the gory details. - -- The code that checks whether used elements and attributes are allowed - now uses isset() to avoid notices under certain configurations. This - hopefully closes SourceForge bug #918493. - -- The check for the Opera extra whitespace character #173 was moved so - it only affects attribute values and nothing else. This is helpful for - Asian kses users, who use that character in writing. (This is just a - temporary solution. A better one will show up in the next version, when - the parser is rewritten.) This closes SourceForge bug #834645, kind of. - -- Now the program will not even look at attributes and closing XHTML - slashes for closing HTML elements. This will make kses execute faster - and it won't accept atrocities like </br /> anymore. - -- Moved references in examples/test.php from function calls to the function - definition, making it better PHP. - -- The output of examples/test.php and examples/filter.php now conform fully - to W3C's HTML specification. - -- From now on, kses releases will be distributed both as .tar.gz and .zip - archives to please our Wintendo users. This closes SourceForge feature - request #900380. - -- Changed to new copyright year and paper mail address. - - -* 0.2.1 - -0.2.1 was released on the 29th of September 2003. -It has the following changes: - - -- There is now an additional version of kses, using the object-oriented - paradigm. Thanks a lot to Richard R. Vasquez, Jr., who created it! Anyone - who wants to make functional programming, logical programming or spaghetti - programming versions of kses as well (or any other programming paradigm that - you like), go ahead! All the people who like old procedural programming for - web applications shouldn't despair, though, as both versions will be - maintained with each release. - -- kses now has some new attribute value checks: minlen, minval and valueless. - See docs/attribute-value-checks for an explanation. - -- For some reason, the Opera developers decided to make chr(173) a whitespace - character in URL protocols, both when it occurs raw and in an entity. kses - now handles this. - -- The URL protocol whitelisting system now decodes entities before removing - NULLs and whitespaces. - - -* 0.2.0 - -0.2.0 was released on the 25th of July 2003. -It has the following changes: - - -- kses now supports checking of attribute values, and not just element names - and attribute names. The attribute value checks that exist so far are - 'maxlen' (checks how long attribute values are, to avoid Buffer Overflows) - and 'maxval' (checks how big an integer value is, to avoid Denial of Service - attacks). - - Buffer Overflows could both be a problem for WWW clients and different - servers on the Internet that an HTML document links to. One example is - <frame src="ftp://ftp.v1ct1m.com/AAAAAA..thousands_of_A's...">. - - Denial of Service attacks can take the form of too big sizes of iframes or - other things. One example is <iframe src="http://some.web.server/" - width="20000" height="2000">, which makes some client machines completely - overloaded. - -- kses' old feature of removing "javascript:" from attribute values has been - improved. It now has a whole system for white listing of URL protocols, so - you can specify that it's acceptable with http:, https:, ftp: and gopher:, - but no other protocols in attribute values. The system tries pretty hard to - do the right thing with whitespace, upper/lower case, HTML entities - ("javascript:") and repeated entries ("javascript:javascript:alert(57)"). - -- kses now supports both HTML and XHTML code, by allowing " /" at the end of - tags. - -- kses now removes Netscape 4's JavaScript entities, having the form - "&{alert(57)};". They don't even seem to work on all versions of Netscape 4, - but for completeness' sake it seemed like a good feature to add. - -- A bug with NULLs in javascript: URLs was fixed. - (Reported by Simon Cornelius P. Umacob - thanks!) - -- As a nice side effect of the white listing of URL protocols, kses now also - normalizes all HTML entities in documents. It will change HTML code with bad - entities to the right form, for example "AT&T" will be converted to - "AT&T" and "<a href='lyrics.php?band=ladytron&lyrics=playgirl'>" will be - converted to "<a href='lyrics.php?band=ladytron&lyrics=playgirl'>". - ":" will be converted to ":", "&#XYZZY;" will be converted to - "&#XYZZY;", "ä!;" will be converted to "&auml!;" and so on. - - As shown above, it will process HTML entities that it doesn't understand. - It will also deal with too big numbers in numeric HTML entities, which is - helpful as many browsers seem to wrap them around at 2 ** 32, so the - characters 58, 58 + (2 ** 32), 58 + (2 ** 64) etcetera are all colons to the - web browser. - -- You can now use upper case letters in your $allowed_html array, in element - names, attribute names and attribute value check names. Version 0.1.0 - required everything in that array to be in lower case, but that's not - necessary any more. You can also use upper case letters in - $allowed_protocols. - -- The "Really malformed thing" bug from the TODO file was fixed. - It used to convert this string: - x > 5 <a href="blah"> - to: - x > 5 <a href="blah"> - and now it converts it to: - x > 5 <a href="blah"> - -- The "Weird malformed thing" bug from the TODO file was fixed. - It used to convert this string: - <a href="5 href=6> - to: - <a href="6"> - because of the way kses restarts after a parse error in kses_hair(). Now it - converts it to: - <a> - -- A problem with slashes in HTML tags was fixed. - -- examples/filter.php used to use $SCRIPT_NAME, which doesn't work on - Windows. - (Reported by Simon Cornelius P. Umacob - thanks!) - -- kses now allows dashes in attribute names, for things like - <meta http-equiv=..>. - - -* 0.1.0, first public version - -0.1.0 was released on the 9th of June 2003. -It was announced on three security related mailing lists on Friday the 13th -of June (nothing bad happened to it though). |
