GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 406351
Podcast titles are not sanitized for folder creation
Last modified: 2007-02-10 12:06:26 UTC
Please describe the problem: Podcast titles are not sanitized at all. A podcast with the title '<em>Example</em>' will be assigned a download folder Podcasts/<em>Example</em> (i.e. a directory called em> nested inside another called <em>Example<) Possibly podcasts with other characters in the title could produce more dangerous results (&& rm -rf ~/*)? Steps to reproduce: 1. create a podcast that has html tags in the title (Drupal audio module does this) 2. add podcast feed to rhythmbox 3. check podcast download directory Actual results: Podcast download directories are created with nested directories, and are ugly Expected results: The title should have special characters removed (in fact possibly anything inside <>?) Does this happen every time? Yes Other information:
