smartedit - Sanitize of strings

[former_member1073188]

Hi Experts,

we are using LongString-Type for attributes in our component in SmartEdit. Unfortunately, the parentheses like "(" and ")" are escaped by back slash. Do you have any idea how to avoid the escaping the parentheses in SmartEdit?

Best regards,

Ira

It's a known issue, and I think there's no fix for it yet. See "Use of special characters can increase XSS vulnerability": https://help.sap.com/viewer/86dd1373053a4c2da8f9885cc9fbe55d/6.6.0.0/en-US/d1493aa101f04a7a98202a140...

No. It doesn't work. I have the same problem like here https://answers.sap.com/questions/12771872/smartedit-sanitize-of-strings.html?childToView=12844158&a.... I found a possible solution for the problem here https://launchpad.support.sap.com/#/notes/0002578791. But it doesn't work, too.

We are using hybris version of 1808.
