Dependencies have been updated:
- Loofah
~>2.21
and Nokogiri~>1.14
for HTML5 parser support - As a result, required Ruby version is now
>= 2.7.0
Security updates will continue to be made on the
1.5.x
release branch as long as Rails 6.1 (which supports Ruby 2.5) is still in security support.Mike Dalessio
- Loofah
-
HTML5 standards-compliant sanitizers are now available on platforms supported by Nokogiri::HTML5. These are available as:
Rails::HTML5::FullSanitizer
Rails::HTML5::LinkSanitizer
Rails::HTML5::SafeListSanitizer
And a new "vendor" is provided at
Rails::HTML5::Sanitizer
that can be used in a future version of Rails.Note that for symmetry
Rails::HTML4::Sanitizer
is also added, though its behavior is identical to the vendor class methods onRails::HTML::Sanitizer
.Users may call
Rails::HTML::Sanitizer.best_supported_vendor
to get back the HTML5 vendor if it's supported, else the legacy HTML4 vendor.Mike Dalessio
-
Module namespaces have changed, but backwards compatibility is provided by aliases.
The library defines three additional modules:
Rails::HTML
for general functionality (replacingRails::Html
)Rails::HTML4
containing sanitizers that parse content as HTML4Rails::HTML5
containing sanitizers that parse content as HTML5
The following aliases are maintained for backwards compatibility:
Rails::Html
points toRails::HTML
Rails::HTML::FullSanitizer
points toRails::HTML4::FullSanitizer
Rails::HTML::LinkSanitizer
points toRails::HTML4::LinkSanitizer
Rails::HTML::SafeListSanitizer
points toRails::HTML4::SafeListSanitizer

LinkSanitizer
always returns UTF-8 encoded strings.SafeListSanitizer
andFullSanitizer
already ensured this encoding.Mike Dalessio
-
SafeListSanitizer
allowstime
tag andlang
attribute by default.Mike Dalessio
-
The constant
Rails::Html::XPATHS_TO_REMOVE
has been removed. It's not necessary with the existing sanitizers, and should have been a private constant all along anyway.Mike Dalessio
-
SafeListSanitizer
,PermitScrubber
, andTargetScrubber
now all support pruning of unsafe tags.By default, unsafe tags are still stripped, but this behavior can be changed to prune the element and its children from the document by passing
prune: true
to any of these classes' constructors.seyerian

Slightly improve performance.
Assuming elements are more common than comments, make one less method call per node.
Mike Dalessio
-
Fix regression in v1.4.0 that did not pass comment nodes to the scrubber.
Some scrubbers will want to override the default behavior and allow comments, but v1.4.0 only passed through elements to the scrubber's
keep_node?
method.This change once again allows the scrubber to make the decision on comment nodes, but still skips other non-elements like processing instructions (see #115).
Mike Dalessio
-
Processing Instructions are no longer allowed by Rails::Html::PermitScrubber
Previously, a PI with a name (or "target") matching an allowed tag name was not scrubbed. There are no known security issues associated with these PIs, but similar to comments it's preferred to omit these nodes when possible from sanitized output.
Fixes #115.

-
Address deprecations in Loofah 2.3.0.
Josh Goodall
-
Remove needless
white_list_sanitizer
deprecation.By deprecating this, we were forcing Rails 5.2 to be updated or spew deprecations that users could do nothing about.
That's pointless and I'm sorry for adding that!
Now there's no deprecation warning and Rails 5.2 works out of the box, while Rails 6 can use the updated naming.
