/* Cleans up HTML source from unwanted tags/attributes
|
|
|
|
This class implements a content sink, which takes a parsed HTML document
|
|
and removes all tags and attributes that are not explicitly allowed.
|
|
|
|
This may improve the viewing experience of the user and/or the
|
|
security/privacy.
|
|
|
|
What is allowed is defined by a string (format described before the
|
|
implementation of |mozHTMLSanitizer::ParsePrefs()|). The sytnax of the
|
|
definition is not very rich - you can only (dis)allow certain tags and
|
|
attributes, but not where they may appear. (This makes the implementation
|
|
much more simple.) E.g. it is impossible to disallow ordinary text as a
|
|
direct child of the <head> node or to disallow multiple <head> nodes.
|
|
|
|
We also remove some known bad attribute values like javascript: URLs.
|
|
Draconian attitude.
|
|
|
|
Currently, the output of this class is unparsed (!) HTML source, which
|
|
means that each document has to go through the parser twice. Of course,
|
|
that is a performance killer. There are some reasons for for me doing it
|
|
that way:
|
|
* There is, to my knowledge, no interface to hook up such modifiers
|
|
in the document display data flow. We have a nice interface for doing
|
|
the modifications (the DOM), but no place to get the DOM and to invoke
|
|
this code. As I don't want to hack this directly into the html sink,
|
|
I'd have to create a generic interface first, which is too much work for
|
|
me at the moment.
|
|
* It is quite easy to hook up modifiers for the (unparsed) data stream,
|
|
both in netwerk (for the browser) and esp. in libmime (for Mailnews).
|
|
* It seems like the safest method - it is easier to debug (you have the
|
|
HTML source output to check) and is less prone to security-relevant bugs
|
|
and regressions, because in the case of a bug, it will probably fall back
|
|
to not outputting, which is safer than erring on the side of letting
|
|
something slip through (most of the alternative approaches listed below
|
|
are probably vulnerable to the latter).
|
|
* It should be possible to later change this class to output a parsed HTML
|
|
document.
|
|
So, in other words, I had the choice between better design and better
|
|
performance. I choose design. Bad performance has an effect on the users
|
|
of this class only, while bad design has an effect on all users and
|
|
programmers.
|
|
|
|
That being said, I have some ideas, how do make it much more efficient, but
|
|
they involve hacking core code.
|
|
* At some point when we have DOM, but didn't do anything with it yet
|
|
(in particular, didn't load any external objects or ran any javascript),
|
|
walk the DOM and delete everything the user doesn't explicitly like.
|
|
* There's this nice GetPref() in the HTMLContentSink. It isn't used exactly
|
|
as I would like to, but that should be doable. Bascially, before
|
|
processing any tag (e.g. in OpenContainer or AddLeaf), ask that
|
|
function, if the tag is allowed. If not, just return.
|
|
In any case, there's the problem, how the users of the renderer
|
|
(e.g. Mailnews) can tell it to use the sanitizer and which tags are
|
|
allowed (the browser may want to allow more tags than Mailnews).
|
|
That probably means that I have to hack into the docshell (incl. its
|
|
interface) or similar, which I would really like to avoid.
|
|
Any ideas appreciated.
