Comment 1 Damian Jansen 2014-08-06 02:06:42 UTC
The path has to invalid url characters, eg. c:\users\name etc, and the languages tab / web editor will not load correctly or at all.

Comment 2 David Mason 2014-08-27 01:46:22 UTC
Required steps to fix:

1. Disallow addition of paths that can escape the project directory (.., etc.)
2. Ensure there is a test that will fail if we accidentally allow addition of these paths again.
3. Migrate existing paths that fit the above pattern that are in the database.
4. Encode paths in URLs.

Comment 3 David Mason 2014-08-27 01:49:08 UTC
The more robust solution to this is to remove the ability for users to enter a path when uploading files, and instead allow users to create folders in their project as a separate operation, and upload files into the folders.

Folder creation would be a separate step and would enforce sensible folder names.
