fix: Fix the storage of sanitized project name - EXO-86231#600
Merged
Conversation
Prior to this change, when creating or editing a task project, a JavaScript payload inserted in the name field could be executed when the task project is deleted, leading to an XSS vulnerability, this is already fixed with a previous commit by storing a sanitized project name which is not coherent with the architectural choice made is: Sanitize OnRead from DB and not altering data OnWrite on DB. After this commit, we ensure to sanitize the project name only when getting projects and not when storing them. Resolves Meeds-io/si#11
