This increases composability and avoids some ugly case handling. We
re-export runExceptT in Hledger.Read.
The final return types of the following functions has been changed from
IO (Either String a) to ExceptT String IO a. If this causes a problem,
you can get the old behaviour by calling runExceptT on the output:
readJournal, readJournalFiles, readJournalFile
Or, you can use the easy functions readJournal', readJournalFiles', and
readJournalFile', which assume default options and return in the IO
monad.
(SourcePos, SourcePos).
This has been marked for possible removal for a while. We are keeping
strictly more information. Possible edge cases arise with Timeclock and
CsvReader, but I think these are covered.
The particular motivation for getting rid of this is that
GenericSourcePos is creating some awkward import considerations for
little gain. Removing this enables some flattening of the module
dependency tree.
This fixes a reported Stored XSS vulnerability in toBloodhoundJson by
encoding the user-controlled values in this payload into base64 and
parsing them with atob.
In my exploration of the vulnerability with various payloads I and
others crafted, it would appear that this is the only available XSS in
hledger-web in relation to stored accounts and transaction details. If
there is other parts of the UI which may contain user-controlled data,
they should be examined for similar things. In this instance,
protections provided by yesod and other libraries worked fine, but in a
bit of code that hledger-web was generating, the user could insert a
</Script> tag (which is valid HTML and equivalent to </script> but not
caught by the T.Replace that existed in toBloodhoundJson) in order to
switch out of a script context, allowing the parser to be reset, and for
arbitrary JavaScript to run.
The real fix is a bit more involved, but produces much better results:
Content-Security-Policy headers should be introduced, and using
sha256-<hash of script> or a different algorithm, they should be marked
as trusted in the header. This way, if the (in-browser) parser and
hledger-web generator disagree on the source code of the script, the
script won't run. Note that this would still be susceptible to attacks
that involve changing the script by escaping from the string inside it
or something similar to that, which can be avoided additionally by using
either the method used in this commit, or a proper JSON encoder.
The second approach has the advantage of preventing further XSS, to the
extent specified above, in practice, a combination of both should be
used, b64 for embedded data and the CSP sha256-hash script-src over
everything else, which will eliminate all injected or malformed script
blocks (via CSP), in combination with eliminating any HTML closing tags
which might occur in stored data (via b64).
This vulnerability appears to have been first introduced when
autocompletion was added in hledger-web, git tag hledger-0.24, commit
hash: ec51d28839
Test payload: </Script><svg onload=alert(1)//>
Closes#1525
transactions are balanced possibly using explicit prices, but without
inferring any prices. This is included in --strict mode.
Renames check autobalanced to check balancedwithautoconversion.
instead of a list of Amounts. No longer export Mixed constructor, to
keep API clean (if you really need it, you can import it directly from
Hledger.Data.Types). We also ensure the JSON representation of
MixedAmount doesn't change: it is stored as a normalised list of
Amounts.
This commit improves performance. Here are some indicative results.

If you never directly use the constructor Mixed or pattern match against
it then you don't need to make any changes. If you do, then do the
following:
- If you really care about the individual Amounts and never normalise
your MixedAmount (for example, just storing `Mixed amts` and then
extracting `amts` as a pattern match, then use should switch to using
[Amount]. This should just involve removing the `Mixed` constructor.
- If you ever call `mixed`, `normaliseMixedAmount`, or do any sort of
amount arithmetic (+), (-), then you should replace the constructor
`Mixed` with the function `mixed`. To extract the list of Amounts, use
the function `amounts`.
- If you ever call `normaliseMixedAmountSquashPricesForDisplay`, you can
replace that with `mixedAmountStripPrices`. (N.B. this does something
slightly different from `normaliseMixedAmountSquashPricesForDisplay`,
but I don't think there's any use case for squashing prices and then
keeping the first of the squashed prices around. If you disagree let
me know.)
- Any remaining calls to `normaliseMixedAmount` can be removed, as that
is now the identity function.
Replaces the partial HashMap.! with List.elemIndex.
(Although the HashMap is more algorithmically efficient,
its API changed recently, possibly complicating building,
and efficiency is just not going to be an issue here.)
This is an API change, but it seems better than having additional
colour-supporting variants and trying to avoid duplicated code.
I stopped short of changing showAmount, so cshowAmount still exists.
Renamed: writeValidJournal -> writeJournalTextIfValidAndChanged
Added comments clarifying line ending behaviour of:
add, import, appendToJournalFileOrStdout, readFilePortably,
writeFileWithBackupIfChanged, writeJournalTextIfValidAndChanged
Summary of current behaviour:
- hledger add and import commands will append with (at least some)
unix line endings, possibly causing the file to have mixed line
endings
- hledger-web edit and upload forms will write the file with
the current system's native line endings, ie changing all
line endings if the file previously used foreign line endings.
It seems like show (toJSON "a") used to give "\"a\"" instead of
"String \"a\"". I haven't found the root cause, it's possible
that this fix won't work if built with older libs.
