The problem was in keeping the values of `attrNameStart` and `attrNameEnd` between directive loop iterations which lead to the compiler looking for multi-element ranges for any directives that happened to be in the directive list after one that was applied on a range. For instance, having a ng-repeat-start and ng-class on a single element with ng-repeat being resolved first made the compiler look for an ng-repeat-end for both ng-repeat and ng-class because the `attrNameEnd` was not reset to a falsy value before the second iteration. As the result, an exception saying the block end element could not be found and the second directive was not actually applied.

jQuery 1.10.2 does not attach data to comment nodes, which previously broke `$compile`.
This changes how elements with "transclude element" and a controller are compiled to
avoid the issue.

This fixes regression introduced by #3514 (5c560117) - this commit is being
reverted here and a better fix is included.
The regression caused the controller to be instantiated before the isolate scope
was initialized.

Closes#3392
Controllers should be always instantiated after compile fn runs, but before
pre-link fn runs. This way, controllers are available to pre-link fns that
request them.
Previously this was broken for async directives (directives with templateUrl).

Support controller: 'MyController as my' syntax for directives which publishes
the controller instance to the directive scope.
Support controllerAs syntax to define an alias to the controller within the
directive scope.
$sce is a service that provides Strict Contextual Escaping services to AngularJS.
Strict Contextual Escaping
--------------------------
Strict Contextual Escaping (SCE) is a mode in which AngularJS requires
bindings in certain contexts to result in a value that is marked as safe
to use for that context One example of such a context is binding
arbitrary html controlled by the user via ng-bind-html-unsafe. We
refer to these contexts as privileged or SCE contexts.
As of version 1.2, Angular ships with SCE enabled by default.
Note: When enabled (the default), IE8 in quirks mode is not supported.
In this mode, IE8 allows one to execute arbitrary javascript by the use
of the expression() syntax. Refer
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2008/10/16/ending-expressions.aspx
to learn more about them. You can ensure your document is in standards
mode and not quirks mode by adding <!doctype html> to the top of your
HTML document.
SCE assists in writing code in way that (a) is secure by default and (b)
makes auditing for security vulnerabilities such as XSS, clickjacking,
etc. a lot easier.
Here's an example of a binding in a privileged context:
<input ng-model="userHtml">
<div ng-bind-html-unsafe="{{userHtml}}">
Notice that ng-bind-html-unsafe is bound to {{userHtml}} controlled by
the user. With SCE disabled, this application allows the user to render
arbitrary HTML into the DIV. In a more realistic example, one may be
rendering user comments, blog articles, etc. via bindings. (HTML is
just one example of a context where rendering user controlled input
creates security vulnerabilities.)
For the case of HTML, you might use a library, either on the client side, or on the server side,
to sanitize unsafe HTML before binding to the value and rendering it in the document.
How would you ensure that every place that used these types of bindings was bound to a value that
was sanitized by your library (or returned as safe for rendering by your server?) How can you
ensure that you didn't accidentally delete the line that sanitized the value, or renamed some
properties/fields and forgot to update the binding to the sanitized value?
To be secure by default, you want to ensure that any such bindings are disallowed unless you can
determine that something explicitly says it's safe to use a value for binding in that
context. You can then audit your code (a simple grep would do) to ensure that this is only done
for those values that you can easily tell are safe - because they were received from your server,
sanitized by your library, etc. You can organize your codebase to help with this - perhaps
allowing only the files in a specific directory to do this. Ensuring that the internal API
exposed by that code doesn't markup arbitrary values as safe then becomes a more manageable task.
In the case of AngularJS' SCE service, one uses $sce.trustAs (and
shorthand methods such as $sce.trustAsHtml, etc.) to obtain values that
will be accepted by SCE / privileged contexts.
In privileged contexts, directives and code will bind to the result of
$sce.getTrusted(context, value) rather than to the value directly.
Directives use $sce.parseAs rather than $parse to watch attribute
bindings, which performs the $sce.getTrusted behind the scenes on
non-constant literals.
As an example, ngBindHtmlUnsafe uses $sce.parseAsHtml(binding
expression). Here's the actual code (slightly simplified):
var ngBindHtmlUnsafeDirective = ['$sce', function($sce) {
return function(scope, element, attr) {
scope.$watch($sce.parseAsHtml(attr.ngBindHtmlUnsafe), function(value) {
element.html(value || '');
});
};
}];
Impact on loading templates
---------------------------
This applies both to the ng-include directive as well as templateUrl's
specified by directives.
By default, Angular only loads templates from the same domain and
protocol as the application document. This is done by calling
$sce.getTrustedResourceUrl on the template URL. To load templates from
other domains and/or protocols, you may either either whitelist them or
wrap it into a trusted value.
*Please note*:
The browser's Same Origin Policy and Cross-Origin Resource Sharing
(CORS) policy apply in addition to this and may further restrict whether
the template is successfully loaded. This means that without the right
CORS policy, loading templates from a different domain won't work on all
browsers. Also, loading templates from file:// URL does not work on
some browsers.
This feels like too much overhead for the developer?
----------------------------------------------------
It's important to remember that SCE only applies to interpolation expressions.
If your expressions are constant literals, they're automatically trusted
and you don't need to call $sce.trustAs on them.
e.g. <div ng-html-bind-unsafe="'<b>implicitly trusted</b>'"></div> just works.
Additionally, a[href] and img[src] automatically sanitize their URLs and
do not pass them through $sce.getTrusted. SCE doesn't play a role here.
The included $sceDelegate comes with sane defaults to allow you to load
templates in ng-include from your application's domain without having to
even know about SCE. It blocks loading templates from other domains or
loading templates over http from an https served document. You can
change these by setting your own custom whitelists and blacklists for
matching such URLs.
This significantly reduces the overhead. It is far easier to pay the
small overhead and have an application that's secure and can be audited
to verify that with much more ease than bolting security onto an
application later.
changing the type of select box from single to multiple or the other way around
at runtime is currently not supported and the two-way binding does odd stuff
when such situation happens.
we might eventually support this, but for now we are just going to not allow
binding to select[multiple] to prevent people from relying on something that
doesn't work.
BREAKING CHANGE: binding to select[multiple] directly or via ngMultiple (ng-multiple)
directive is not supported. This feature never worked with two-way data-binding,
so it's not expected that anybody actually depends on it.
Closes#3230
Ref: 1adf29af13
BREAKING CHANGE: img[src] URLs are now sanitized via a separate
whitelist regex instead of sharing the whitelist regex with a[href].
With this change, img[src] URLs may also be data: URI's matching
mime types image/*. mailto: URLs are disallowed (and do not make
sense for img[src] but were allowed under the a[href] whitelist used
before.)
Previously if a template contained a directive that had a template
(sync or async) and the directive template was to replace the original
element and the directive template contained another directive on the
root element of this template and this new directive was an element
transclude directive then an infinite recursion would follow because
the compiler kept on re-adding and reapplying the original directive
to the replaced node.
This change fixes that.
Closes#2155
This reverts commit 15e1a29cd0.
The original commit was fixing two issues - one of them was
preventing attributes that triggered directives that replaced
the compiled node to be merged into the new node.
This change was a breaking change (as seen in the diff of the
tests in this commit) and that's why it's being removed.
A proper fix will follow.
BREAKING CHANGE: Concatenating expressions makes it hard to reason about
whether some combination of concatenated values are unsafe to use
and could easily lead to XSS. By requiring that a single expression
be used for *[src/ng-src] such as iframe[src], object[src], etc.
(but not img[src/ng-src] since that value is sanitized), we ensure that the value
that's used is assigned or constructed by some JS code somewhere
that is more testable or make it obvious that you bound the value to
some user controlled value. This helps reduce the load when
auditing for XSS issues.
To migrate your code, follow the example below:
Before:
JS:
scope.baseUrl = 'page';
scope.a = 1;
scope.b = 2;
HTML:
<!-- Are a and b properly escaped here? Is baseUrl
controlled by user? -->
<iframe src="{{baseUrl}}?a={{a}&b={{b}}">
After:
JS:
var baseUrl = "page";
scope.getIframeSrc = function() {
// There are obviously better ways to do this. The
// key point is that one will think about this and do
// it the right way.
var qs = ["a", "b"].map(function(value, name) {
return encodeURIComponent(name) + "=" +
encodeURIComponent(value);
}).join("&");
// baseUrl isn't on scope so it isn't bound to a user
// controlled value.
return baseUrl + "?" + qs;
}
HTML: <iframe src="{{getIframeSrc()}}">
BREAKING CHANGE: Interpolations inside DOM event handlers are
disallowed. DOM event handlers execute arbitrary Javascript code.
Using an interpolation for such handlers means that the interpolated
value is a JS string that is evaluated. Storing or generating such
strings is error prone and likely leads to an XSS if you're not
super careful. On the other hand, ng-click and such event handlers
evaluate Angular expressions that are a lot safer (e.g. No direct
access to global objects - only scope), cleaner and harder to
exploit.
To migrate the code follow the example below:
Before:
JS: scope.foo = 'alert(1)';
HTML: <div onclick="{{foo}}">
After:
JS: scope.foo = function() { alert(1); }
HTML: <div ng-click="foo()">
Ref: 9532234bf1
BREAKING CHANGE: img[src] URLs are now sanitized using the same whitelist
as a[href] URLs. The most obvious impact is if you were using data:
URIs. data: URIs will be whitelisted for img[src] in a future
commit.
jQuery switched to a completely new event binding implementation as of
1.7.0, centering around on/off methods instead of previous bind/unbind.
This patch makes jqLite match this implementation while still supporting
previous bind/unbind methods.
$route, $routeParams and ngView have been pulled from core angular.js
to angular-route.js/ngRoute module.
This is was done to in order keep the core focused on most commonly
used functionality and allow community routers to be freely used
instead of $route service.
There is no need to panic, angular-route will keep on being supported
by the angular team.
Note: I'm intentionally not fixing tutorial links. Tutorial will need
bigger changes and those should be done when we update tutorial to
1.2.
BREAKING CHANGE: applications that use $route will now need to load
angular-route.js file and define dependency on ngRoute module.
Before:
```
...
<script src="angular.js"></script>
...
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', ['someOtherModule']);
...
```
After:
```
...
<script src="angular.js"></script>
<script src="angular-route.js"></script>
...
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute', 'someOtherModule']);
...
```
Closes#2804
By appending directive-start and directive-end to a
directive it is now possible to have the directive
act on a group of elements.
It is now possible to iterate over multiple elements like so:
<table>
<tr ng-repeat-start="item in list">I get repeated</tr>
<tr ng-repeat-end>I also get repeated</tr>
</table>
A directive can now set/update/remove attribute values even those containing
interpolation during the compile phase and have the new value be picked up
during the compilation.
For example in template:
<div replace-directive some-attr-or-directive="{{originalInterpolationValue}}"></div>
the replace-directive can now replace the value of some-attr-or-directive during compilation
which produces this intermitent template:
<div replace-directive some-attr-or-directive="{{replacedInterpolationValue}}"></div>
or even
<div replace-directive some-attr-or-directive="replacedStaticValue"></div>
as well as
<div replace-directive some-attr-or-directive></div>
Sometimes is not desirable to use interpolation on attributes because
the user agent parses them before the interpolation takes place. I.e:
<svg>
<circle cx="{{cx}}" cy="{{cy}}" r="{{r}}"></circle>
</svg>
The snippet throws three browser errors, one for each attribute.
For some attributes, AngularJS fixes that behaviour introducing special
directives like ng-href or ng-src.
This commit is a more general solution that allows prefixing any
attribute with "ng-attr-", "ng:attr:" or "ng_attr_" so it will
be set only when the binding is done. The prefix is then removed.
Example usage:
<svg>
<circle ng-attr-cx="{{cx}}" ng-attr-cy="{{cy}}" ng:attr-r="{{r}}"></circle>
</svg>
Closes#1050Closes#1925
Passing DOMNode#childNodes to compileNodes when compiling remote
template, so that directives with replace:true can be compiled.
The previous version used jqLite#contents which returned collection
that was not updated during the compilation.
Closes#1859
If you bind using '=' to a non-existant parent property, the compiler
will throw a NON_ASSIGNABLE_MODEL_EXPRESSION exception, which is right
because the model doesn't exist.
This enhancement allow to specify that a binding is optional so it
won't complain if the parent property is not defined. In order to mantain
backward compability, the new behaviour must be specified using '=?' instead
of '='. The local property will be undefined is these cases.
Closes#909Closes#1435
The change to prevent <span> elements being wrapped around empty text nodes caused these empty text nodes to have scopes and controllers attached, through jqLite.data() calls, which led to memory leaks and errors in IE8.
Now we exclude all but document nodes and elements from having jqLite.data() set both in the compiler and in ng-view.
Fixes: #1968 and #1876
