I've reviewed this plugin's code, and there is one major issue with it,
|
|
namely this line:
|
|
|
|
system("hnb '$params{page}.hnb' 'go root' 'export_html $tmp' > /dev/null");
|
|
|
|
This could potentially allow execution of artibtary shell code, if the filename
|
|
contains a single quote.
|
|
|
|
* Fixed with version 0.02 by usage of `$params{content}` -- XTaran
|
|
|
|
Which ikiwiki doesn't allow by default, but I prefer to never involve a shell where one is not needed. The otl plugin is a good example of how to safely fork a child process without involving the shell.
|
|
|
|
* Had a look at that one as example before writing the hnb plugin, but hnb has different input/output characteristics. I would prefer another solution, too, but as long as it works and is secure, I'm fine with the current (fixed :-) ) solution -- [[XTaran]].
|
|
|
|
Other problems:
|
|
|
|
* Use of shell mktemp from perl is suboptimal. File::Temp would be better.
|
|
* Fixed with version 0.02 -- [[XTaran]]
|
|
* The htmlize hook should not operate on the contents of `$params{page}.hnb`.
|
|
The content that needs to be htmlized is passed in to the hook in
|
|
`$params{content}`.
|
|
* Fixed with version 0.02 -- [[XTaran]]
|
|
|
|
If these problems are resolved and a copyright statement is added to the file,
|
|
|
|
* Copyright Statement is in their for about a month. -- [[XTaran]]

I'd be willing to include this plugin in ikiwiki. --[[Joey]]
