[RESOLVED] Google hangout/chat XSS issue

Post by cef »

Just noticed that 2.6.8.9rc5 and 2.6.8.9 (final) both seem to pick up Google's newer hangout/chat system as an XSS issue. Happens when on Google Plus and Gmail.

2.6.8.9rc4 works fine, so I suspect the [XSS] Stricter HTML checks change in 2.6.8.9rc5 is what's causing it to trip.

If you need logs, just ask.

Just a FYI to anyone following, I've forwarded logs by email to Giorgio to examine.
