SpecifyJS is a declarative TypeScript user interface framework. Prior to version 0.2.136, CSS value sanitization stripped expression( and url(javascript: using simple regex, but could be bypassed with CSS unicode escapes (\65xpression(), null bytes, or CSS comments (exp/**/ression(). These CSS injection vectors only work in legacy browsers (IE6-IE10). SpecifyJS targets modern browsers. Starting in version 0.2.136, CSS sanitization now normalizes unicode escapes and strips CSS comments before pattern matching. Also checks for behavior:, -moz-binding, and -o-link patterns.
