no-eval-in-markdown
Some tools use JavaScript to render OpenAPI docs. They can be vulnerable to XSS attacks if they render HTML/markdown
from descriptions that contain malicious eval()
calls.
Why did this violation appear?
There is JavaScript code using eval()
defined in a description
value.
Bad example
paths:
/snakes/cakes:
post:
description: "This is a hack attack. eval('alert(\'hacked!\')')";
How do I fix this violation?
Ensure there is no JavaScript or <script/>
tags in any description.
