How to: Protect Against Script Exploits in a Web Application by Applying HTML Encoding to Strings Most scripting exploits occur when users can get executable code (or script) into your application. By default, ASP.NET provides request validation, which raises an error if a form post contains any HTML. You can help protect against script exploits in the following ways: Perform parameter validation on form variables, query-string variables, and cookie values. This validation should include two types of verification: verification that the variables can be converted to the expected type (for example, convert to an integer, convert to date-time, and so on), and verification of expected ranges or formatting. For example, a form post variable that is intended to be an integer should be checked with the Int32.TryParse method to verify the variable really is an integer. HTML encoding converts HTML elements using HTML–reserved characters so that they are displayed rather than executed. To apply HTML encoding to a string

All the exception filters implements the IExceptionFilter interface. Listing 1. The HandleErrorAttribute is the default implementation of the IExceptionFilter. Listing 2.
