[jira] [Created] (SLING-6438) Add encodeForHTMLAttrName() to XSSAPI

Lars Krapf created SLING-6438:
---------------------------------

             Summary: Add encodeForHTMLAttrName() to XSSAPI
                 Key: SLING-6438
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-6438
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: XSS Protection API
    Affects Versions: XSS Protection API 1.0.16
            Reporter: Lars Krapf


The XSSAPI currently does not provide a method to safely encode HTML attribute names. This could cause problems if for example attackers were allowed to define arbitrary "data-" attributes. I don't think Encoder already provides a context for that, but {{forHtmlUnquotedAttribute}} might just do the trick.
