I recently contributed a bit of code in a message to this list. It created a new transformation "Append" that just appended the specified text to a field for display. 

I don't know if any developer actually captured my contribution for incorporation into the code base. I'm not a serious developer and have no wish to become one. In fact I plan to unsubscribe from this list soon. 

If anybody wants to pursue this, let me know.

As discussed on the team meeting in February, I started creating a
wiki page with some guidelines for avoiding security bugs [0].
The page is not finished yet, I just set out some ideas, that I will
work out in the next few days. Feel free to comment, improve or add
guidelines as you see fit.

Thanks, looks great so far!

Yes, thanks. I'm wondering, are there places where we really use
htmlentities() for protection?

Also I think we should talk about PMA_sanitize().

Hi,

I went through the AllSeleniumTests.php and found the tests are outdated. I started to re write the PmaSeleniumTestCase.php and I updated the PmaSeleniumLoginTest.php. I just add the login test to the AllSeleniumTest suit. If I can get a feed back I can write the test cases for the remaining two suits. Patch was attached to the source forge patch tracker.[1]
Add a README file under /test/selenium which contains testing configuration guide.

Regards,

Hi Michal,

I wrote some selenium test cases for login. I updated the AllSeleniumTests.php and add I add a Helper class and TestConfig class which can be use when writing other test cases. I attached the changes as patch in source forge patch tracker.[1] Meanwhile Mark has removed the AllTests.php along with AllSeleniumTests.php. Since AllSeleniumTests.php class is no longer there patch will give some errors. He suggested some one familiar with selenium should involved with this. ch willCan you look for this. Adding old AllSeleniumTests.php and merge my patch will do the job.

Hi,

I updated the patch and attached to the patch traker. [1]. It can be directly merged into the current master branch.

Hi,

I fixed the PmaSeleniumPrivilegesTest and PmaSeleniumXssTest classes as well. I attached the patch in the source forge patch tracker.[0]
In PmaSeleniumXssTest class I added a method testQueryTabWithNullValue() to test the processing a null query. But there should be another method to handle the query with xss scripts. For this I need to call selenium.type() on the respective textarea. 
But in the latest version the textarea is replaced with codemirror object. It doesn't have an id and cannot access via Xpath. Can you give any suggestion for this?

Regards,
