Minor Bug Registration -> Questions Groupings: showing backslashesin apostrophes

I found this issue in the following file:

wp-content\plugins\event-espresso.3.1.21.P\includes\functions\main.php

Line 660 just lists the $question->group_name without taking into account apostrophes.

I modified the line to read:
$html .= $question->show_group_name != 0 ? “” . stripslashes($question->group_name) . “” : ”;

This fixes it.

You really should sanitize all output before displaying it. I haven’t seen this else where so I think it’s one that just slipped through the cracks.

Thanks. It might be, there was some more work done on escaping apostrophes since 3.1.21, but this one might’ve slipped through. I’ll let the dev team know.

Thanks for the response. I just noticed that the same issue occurs in the admin section as well – but it’s not quite as important there.

Oh – and the same issue occurs in event-espresso.3.1.24.1.P as well – Just an FYI.

All that being said, the plugin is still a very great product.
