Syntax Highlighter XSS

Post by jacek »

The syntax highlighting mod used on this forum had an XSS bug.

If anyone used this mod, you need to update to the most recent version to fix it. I believe I recommended it to someone via PM but I have forgotten who so am posting this here :D

[syntax=text][i mg]http://nothing.com/file.png"onerror="alert('xss');[/i mg][/syntax]
used to work and cause the alert to be shown.

without the spaces obviously ;)

Lucky that nobody noticed eh :lol:

EDIT: It looks like I am the only person who downloaded the fixed version. So if you know of any forums using this, go warn them !
