This PR ensures that user‐supplied data is properly escaped before being rendered, mitigating the risk of stored cross‐site scripting (XSS).

Changes include:

  • Stored XSS: The code previously used print_r($data, true) directly within echo sprintf(), which allowed malicious HTML or script tags to be injected into the page. We now wrap the output in htmlspecialchars(..., ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8') to encode special characters, converting <, >, &, and quotes into safe HTML entities.

Security configuration:

  • We added ENT_QUOTES and specified the charset as UTF-8 in htmlspecialchars. This ensures both single and double quotes are escaped and that the encoding matches the application’s expected character set. We assumed the project uses UTF-8; please verify this matches your environment and adjust if necessary.
