Remove illegal characters from XML strings before parsing.
Review Request #6670 — Created Dec. 2, 2014 and submitted — Latest diff uploaded
It's easy for people to unintentionally inject XML-unsafe characters into a string from a copy/paste when filling out the Description or Testing Done fields of a review request. We now sanitize the XML before attempting to parse it, removing any illegal characters. The result is a string that can be safely parsed with no noticeably defects.
Unit tests pass.
Manually tested with a string containing the unsafe 0x0C character.
