Certification How to Use sanitization?
- 1 year ago
Hi IraJWatt,
If you're using sanitize-html, this should be enough. However, you may need to consider the permitted tags your HTML may contain to avoid arbitrary execution of JavaScript and potential attempts to load data remotely via attributes like src. For the remote loading, setting your WebAccess privilege in your capabilities as directed should prevent this, but you can also manage this within sanitize-html.
If it helps, the HTML Content visual is open source. There is a version called HTML Content (lite), certified by MS, so it can be regarded as good enough for HTML sanitization in a certified environment. You can review its sanitize-html configuration here.
Good luck!
