Am I supposed to be able to run "alert('XSS')" in the admin interface via the script text field?

LimeSurvey dev are not idiot

I've just proven you wrong. XD

Why is alert("XSS"); a problem? It's not run anywhere in the admin interface, at least not as I can tell.

Same for Cross-site-scripting in question text : the objective is to disable to add suspicous HTML inside public survey

https://manual.limesurvey.org/Optional_settings#Security

filterxsshtml: This setting enables the filtering of suspicious html tags located within surveys, groups, and questions and answer texts in the administration interface. Leave this to 'false' only if you absolutely trust the users you created for the administration of LimeSurvey and if you want to allow these users to be able to use Javascript, Flash Movies, etc..

If you want to disable XSS in question text => you want to totally disable user to add any script : it's not only my opinion (have client).

Even superadmin must not be allowed top add XSS in admin. See https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/commit/323c6f2f0bfdd6eb1c6fe7dea16b2af503806d2a#diff-813c0e5c1b7f9c5b0239989343f8f282 for example.

xss filtering must be moved to LSUser because related to user.

I prefer usage of beforeSave than a rules. If it's a rules :

  1. create LSYii_NoChangeValidator.php (or another name)
  2. array('script', 'LSYii_NoChangeValidator'), here : https://github.com/LimeSurvey/LimeSurvey/commit/e27df930c8b0d4a8208c45836369a72c9883c58b#diff-be7262c5fa70e7a4d50a91e7a6a23894R81

@ollehar : OK for before save ?

We can not create a LSYii_NoChangeValidator : because Validator get only : attribute and value but not the model. And we need model.

You can send the model as an argument to the validator.

The validator also has $object, from which you can use get_class().

Not saying using validator is the best way, just saying it's probably possible.

I create a global solution, working for script but surely for other LSYii_NoUpdateValidator.php
