Affected packages

• Packagist zendframework/zend-form: >= 2.0.0, < 2.2.7 → fixed in 2.2.7 • Packagist zendframework/zend-form: >= 2.3.0, < 2.3.1 → fixed in 2.3.1

Description

Many Zend Framework 2 view helpers were using the escapeHtml() view helper in order to escape HTML attributes, instead of the more appropriate escapeHtmlAttr(). In situations where user data and/or JavaScript is used to seed attributes, this can lead to potential cross site scripting (XSS) attack vectors. Vulnerable view helpers include: • All `Zend\Form` view helpers. • Most `Zend\Navigation` (aka `Zend\View\Helper\Navigation\*`) view helpers. • All "HTML Element" view helpers: `htmlFlash()`, `htmlPage()`, `htmlQuickTime()`. • `Zend\View\Helper\Gravatar`
