  • New Features

    • Added a modal for adding custom icons using pasted SVG or Font Awesome HTML.
    • Custom icons are now encoded and added to icon lists through a consistent workflow.
  • Changes

    • Icon input fields now use a hidden entry field while adding icons through the modal.
    • List option creation and initialization are handled consistently across settings.

Icon entry flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared list option handling
front/js/settings_utils.js
Adds appendListOption and updates addList to use it. The helper creates the option, initializes interaction settings, and calls settingsChanged().
Icon modal wiring
front/js/settings_utils.js, server/plugins/custom_props/config.json, server/plugins/ui_settings/config.json
Adds addIconViaModal, which encodes pasted SVG or Font-Awesome HTML before appending it. Both icon settings hide the direct input and use the modal handler.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to b5d62

The modal icon flow is not ready to merge: pasted markup may execute when icons are rendered, Unicode input can prevent icons from being added, and quote replacement can corrupt valid icon HTML.

Add validation immediately after the new functions.

appendListOption and addIconViaModal add new behavior, but no test case or validation follows either function. Cover option creation, interaction initialization, modal confirmation and cancellation, mixed quotes, and non-Latin-1 input.

As per coding guidelines: **/*.{py,js,php}: Never provide a solution without proof of correctness. Write test cases or validation immediately after writing functions.

XSS

Reachability: External
CWE: CWE-79 — Improper Neutralization of Input During Web Page Generation ('Cross-site Scripting')

Sanitize pasted icon HTML before rendering.

addIconViaModal stores arbitrary HTML. Device views decode devIcon and insert it into HTML, so base64 encoding does not block scripts, event-handler attributes, or active SVG. Apply an inert allowlist or sanitizer before storing the icon.

Do not mutate the pasted HTML before encoding it.

raw.replace(/"/g, "'") changes the user input before storage. Input that contains both quote types can become invalid HTML after this replacement. Preserve the original raw value and add a mixed-quote round-trip test.

Handle non-Latin-1 input before calling btoa.

addIconViaModal passes the modal value directly to btoa. btoa throws for characters outside Latin-1, so SVG or HTML containing CJK characters or emoji prevents appendListOption from running. Use UTF-8-compatible Base64 encoding and add a regression test for non-Latin-1 input.
