Unclear to me exactly where this happens but a likely culprit is that the Oauth provided data isn't encoded as expected.

Sir,can you please assign this task to me?

Can someone please help me how can i get the code base?I want to contribute

@DishaJain01: Hi, please read https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/New_Developers#Communication_tips which answers both your questions - thanks.

@DishaJain01: Please provide context instead of posting only an image. :) Does that mean you cannot reproduce? Does that mean that you fixed something locally?

Let me clear if i am wrong,what i need to do is when i enter Andre it needs to display same name instead of displaying the name with some special characters.Right?

The user name should be shown correctly. When this task was reported that was not the case (see screenshot in the task description).

Please check my screenshot once,in my screenshot name is properly written.

@DishaJain01: Please check my comment T275491#8591360 where I asked after which steps that you did or did not perform that screenshot was taken.

In other words: If you cannot reproduce the problem anymore, please explicitly write that you cannot reproduce the problem anymore, to avoid any ambiguity. Thanks a lot!

@Aklapper Can you please tell me what will be the output, according to you? Can you please explain to me, where I am wrong? So that I can work better on the same.

Hi, I don't know if you are wrong, as you have not described yet what you have tried (or not).

As a start: 1) Could you reproduce the bug? 2) What exactly have you tried to reproduce the bug? As text. I don't know what these screenshots are supposed to show...

These changes I did

Hi, please thoroughly read my previous comment. Posting screenshots without any text comment or explanation is not a good use of time, and I still do not know if you could initially reproduce the bug or not (without any changes). If you made some code changes please post them as a code diff in Gerrit and not as an image, and please clearly state in a comment if you could reproduce the problem, what/how you tested, and if your proposed changes fix the problem. Thanks a lot! :)

Here what I did is, i used JSON.parse method to parse my data which is in the form of String into javascript object.A parse method ensures that the data is valid JSON which again in turn ensures that the malicious code can not be injected.

Sorry for the inconvenience, I will make sure along with screenshot my approach will also be there.

I personally don't mind what the code change does. :) My questions were: 1) Did you initially succeed to reproduce the bug, before making any code changes? 2) If you managed to reproduce the bug, and then made some code changes, did your testing after making some code changes fix the bug?

@DishaJain01 I don't think this should be the solution, especially since you are hardcoding the username values, can you try testing with the OAuth integration enabled ?

@DishaJain01: Hi! Could you maybe share an update? Do you still plan to work on this task, or do you need any help? Thanks!

@Aklapper Hi, I am trying to work on this issue right now. It seems like user.username in Authentication.jsx is not properly encoded, so non-latin characters cannot be displayed correctly. Is user.username encoded using UTF-8, ISO-8859-1, or something else?
