http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33535 Summary: invalid XML in directory listing with names containing "&" Product: Tomcat 5 Version: 5.5.7 Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: Catalina AssignedTo: tomcat-dev@jakarta.apache.org ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I used an XSLT stylesheet to format directory listings. When listing a directory which name (or any of its files' names) contained a "&" character, the generated XML code contained an unmasked &, wich meens it was invalid and produced an error. The source of the error is located in the DefaultServlet.java where in the protected method renderXml two Strings have to be checked for illegal XML characters: cacheEntry.name as the value of the directory attribute of the listing tag and trimmed that is filled from resourceName and used as the content of the entry tag. In my opinion it would perhaps be good to replace > and < by > and < too, even if I don't know if anyone uses (or even can use) them in file names. As for " this would make problems in the attribute value - and again I don't know where this would happen to be in a directory name. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
