This fixes a set of XSS issues with Zulip's frontend markdown
processor, which is used in a limited set of contexts, such as local
echo of messages and the drafts feature.
The implementation of several syntax elements, including the <em>
syntax, user and stream mentions, and some others failed to properly
escape the content inside the syntax.
Fix this, and add tests for each corrected code path.
Thanks to w2w for reporting this issue.
This enforces `**` around all the mentions including "at-all" and
"at-everyone" mentions. Hence this makes `@all` and `@everyone`
invalid mentions, resulting into proper syntax for these mentions as
`@**all**` and `@**everyone**` respectively.
Note from tabbott: This removes an old feature/syntax, which made
sense back when @Tim was also a way to mention a user with Tim as
their first name. Given how nice typeahead is now, the user part of
the feature was removed a while ago; this should have gone at the same
time.
Fixes: #8143.
The character ">" now only starts a blockquote if the resulting
blockquote would be non-empty. Thus, by itself, ">" is now
interpreted literally by bugdown, fixing #687. The message
with contents consisting of ">>>" is now parsed as a doubly
(not triply) nested blockquote with contents ">". Properly
formed blockquotes have identical behavior as before, but now
bugdown can no longer produce empty blockquotes as output.
Fixes#2886, #687.
The intended use of $$ is for inline expressions, not for multiline
ones; ```math is an acceptable alternative for the latter. Hence,
the $$-syntax for inline TeX no longer permits newlines within it.
This was also necessary for the next change to be sensible; namely
allowing for spaces around both $$ when crafting inline TeX instead of
forcing everything to be crammed together, e.g. $$x=7$$. In order to
avoid uninentionally creating inline expressions, the opening and
closing $$'s of an inline expression must now both exactly consist of
two dollar signs, no more and no less.
Fixes: #6488.
This commit removes all code related to headers because
(1) we don't need the code and (2) it splits #**stream**
as a paragraph, which we don't want. This commit also
fixes the inconsistency when #**stream** is on a new line.
Fixes#4678.
The user mention regex was checking for multiple lines,
so it broke when the user mention was on a new line.
This changes the regex AND adds a couple tests to
test inline markdown regexes.
The regex we were using didn't cover all the unicode blocks
to which our emojis belong. This commit fixes the regex to
include all the unicode blocks and also updates the
corresponding JS regex in marked.js.
Fixes: #3460.
An exception in the webapp was trown when an empty mention was sent.
Examples of problematic messages are "@" or "@****".
In order to fix this, the regex that identifies mentions has been
modified, so it now requires the mention to have a "content" (by
replacing the ? quantifier by +).
A test case has been added to `frontend_tests/node_tests/echo.js` to
check that this works properly in the future.
* Fixes handling of multiple stream links and invalid stream names.
* Fixes text regex so it handle hash sign the right way.
* Adds tests for these stream link cases.
After adding the ability to add stream links to messages using
the following pattern '#**stream_name**' there was a problem
with rendering this using our markdown engine because '**' means
bold text so that would render just to bold text.
To solve this I had to add regular expression in marked.js to match
that pattern and when it matches I call handleStreamLinks in echo.js
which will correctly render it to HTML.
Fixes#2218.
[tweaked by tabbott to url-encode the stream name in the URL and
adding the missing "#" in the display].
* Escape " as "
* Enable GFM newlines
* Output a linebreak after <br> in the generated markup
