The use of
CharField
in forms is vulnerable to stored cross site scripting attacks.User supplied data through the forms needs to be sanitised to prevent malicious use. Currently a user could enter into the various
CharFields
something like<script>alert("Hi")</script>
and when an administrator opens that form submission in the admin, the script would be executed & the alert would appear.This change introduces a dependency on
django-bleach
but it then uses it to sanitise HTML entered by the user.
