compare: prevent XSS due to unescaped branch/tag/bookmark names
In the revision selection dropdown of the 'Compare' functionality, the
branch/tag/bookmark names were not correctly escaped.
This means that if an attacker is able to push a branch/tag/bookmark
containing HTML/JavaScript in its name, then that code would be evaluated.
This is a cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability.
Fix the problem by correctly escaping the branch/tag/bookmarks.

.. _customization: ============= Customization ============= There are several ways to customize Kallithea to your needs depending on what you want to achieve. HTML/JavaScript/CSS customization --------------------------------- To customize the look-and-feel of the web interface (for example to add a company banner or some JavaScript widget or to tweak the CSS style definitions) you can enter HTML code (possibly with JavaScript and/or CSS) directly via the *Admin > Settings > Global > HTML/JavaScript customization block*. Style sheet customization with Less ----------------------------------- Kallithea uses `Bootstrap 3`_ and Less_ for its style definitions. If you want to make some customizations, we recommend to do so by creating a ``theme.less`` file. When you create a file named ``theme.less`` in the Kallithea root directory, you can use this file to override the default style. For example, you can use this to override ``@kallithea-theme-main-color``, ``@kallithea-logo-url`` or other `Bootstrap variables`_. After creating the ``theme.less`` file, you need to regenerate the CSS files, by running:: kallithea-cli front-end-build --no-install-deps .. _bootstrap 3: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/ .. _bootstrap variables: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/customize/#less-variables .. _less: http://lesscss.org/ Behavioral customization: rcextensions -------------------------------------- Some behavioral customization can be done in Python using ``rcextensions``, a custom Python package that can extend Kallithea functionality. With ``rcextensions`` it's possible to add additional mappings for Whoosh indexing and statistics, to add additional code into the push/pull/create/delete repository hooks (for example to send signals to build bots such as Jenkins) and even to monkey-patch certain parts of the Kallithea source code (for example overwrite an entire function, change a global variable, ...). To generate a skeleton extensions package, run:: kallithea-cli extensions-create -c my.ini This will create an ``rcextensions`` package next to the specified ``ini`` file. See the ``__init__.py`` file inside the generated ``rcextensions`` package for more details. Behavioral customization: code changes -------------------------------------- As Kallithea is open-source software, you can make any changes you like directly in the source code. We encourage you to send generic improvements back to the community so that Kallithea can become better. See :ref:`contributing` for more details.
