I want to prevent XSS attacks in my web application. I found that HTML Encoding the output can really prevent XSS attacks. Now the problem is that how do I HTML encode every single output in my application? I there a way to automate this?
I appreciate answers for JSP, ASP.net and PHP.
You don’t want to encode all HTML, you only want to HTML-encode any user input that you’re outputting.
For PHP: htmlentities and htmlspecialchars
