How to modify the contents of javascript files through RoboHelp.

Report · Jun 22, 2020

I have a class named eHelpDhtm.js, which is dynamically generated by RoboHelp and I can't modify this file.

If I will modify these file contents then next time when this tool will run then changes will be overwritten.

My issue is :

when I am scanning my whole project through checkmark, I am seeing vulnerability related to DOM XSS attack.
Below is my code snippet:

function PopupMenu_InvokeReady()
{
if (gbWndPopupLinks != null) {
gbWndPopupLinks.document.open("text/html");
gbWndPopupLinks.document.write("<html><head>");
if (gbBsNS2) {
gbWndPopupLinks.document.write("<base href=\"" + location +"\">");
}
return true;
}

Here the faulty line of code is:

gbWndPopupLinks.document.write("<base href=\"" + location +"\">");

I want to change it like below through RoboHelp:

gbWndPopupLinks.document.write("<base href=\"" + HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(location) +"\">");

If RoboHelp will generate above changes then my issue will be resolved.

Can anyone please help me ?
