Aaron Digulla commented on DOXIA-431:
-------------------------------------
I have no idea. But from my experience, I'd say that those URLs should already
be encoded. I mean "Image[1].png" is a valid Unix filename. If you want to use
that as a caption, you need escaping.
So maybe the solution is to reject strings which contain invalid characters
close to the input side.
But I saw that you have sanitize methods in some URL helper class in Doxia.
That led me to think that you want to do it there and I don't believe this will
work. Data must be sanitized and validated in the outside interface, not deep
in the code.
