Trailing text is not preserved

[IvanPizhenko]

To Reproduce

1. Get sample project that demonstrates bug (2 files) from here: https://gist.github.com/IvanPizhenko/100c92f523a994fd425ff8f16420f12d
2. Run npm install
3. Run node index.js

Expected behavior

I expect trailing text Above is preserved, i.e. sanitized output should be:

Below
<span>[image: image.png]</span>
Above

Describe the bug

Trailing text Above is lost, i.e. I am getting:

Below
<span>[image: image.png]</span>

Details

Version of Node.js: v12.22.6

Server Operating System: Linux

Additional context:
I am trying to upgrade sanitize-html from version 1.21.1 to latest 2.5.2 (at the moment of submitting this issue) and getting the above described issue. According to my research (I have tried multiple versions) bug has appeared in version 1.27.3.

Seems to be a regression. Maintainers: could you point us in the right direction as far as any guesses on where to look? We may attempt a fix.

It sounds like it might be an upstream issue with the htmlparser2 module. Might be — haven't delved into it.

Stumble upon the issue myself when upgraded to latest from 1.22.

It's a bug on transformTags on text property which replaces content. (fyi: @tomholub)

[IvanPizhenko]

@alex-rantos Do you know how to fix this?

[alex-rantos]

Not really I just narrowed down the repro steps a bit further and shared it here.
However, I will try to give it a go once I find some free time but I cannot promise anything - not familiar with transformTags flow.

[alex-rantos]

It's a regression from this commit alex-rantos@b218a72

@abea the following condition fails to append the trailing text as addedText = true in this case.

else if (!addedText) {
  result += escaped;
}

In case you take a look this is the test case that fails:

  it('should preserve trailing text when replacing the tagName and adding new text via transforming function', function () {
    assert.equal(sanitizeHtml('<p>text before <br> text after</p>', {
      transformTags: {
        br: function (_tagName, _attribs) {
          return {
            tagName: 'span',
            text: ' '
          };
        }
      }
    }), '<p>text before <span> </span> text after</p>');
  });

Works correctly in the version 2.6.1. Thank you for the fix!
