HTML is escaped by default

XMLWordPrintable

      Not a Bug IMHO but after the update from 0.3 to 0.4 our HTML parameter descriptions are no longer parsed as HTML, therefor links are no longer working etc. but the HTML code is shown instead. We pinned it down to this change:

      https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-parameter-summary-plugin/commit/3775c4992b1b2b893f83e558b9bb12b10fd2e66c

      Is there now another way to get HTML code into the parameter description?

          Yes, the descriptions needs to be processed by the corresponding formatters, which it is not now.

          Thanks for the response. Is there a way for us to make it work again or can you give us a hint?

          Strictly speaking it was a XSS vulnerability before. So no, there is no way to make it work again. The plugin needs to be extended to support configured description formatting and new version released.

          Okay, then we will wait with an upgrade. Is there the possibility of you implementing such a change with this feature? Thank you for the support

          Hi, unfortunately I haven't heard form anything regarding this topic in a while. Do you think there will be a new release in the near future? Thanks for your support

          I am sorry but this is not anywhere near to the top of my priorities list right now. I am open to review a PR, though.
