Default unicode escape in JsonResponse

[Guigoz]

Description:

Hi!

The Illuminate\Http\JsonResponse class extending the Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\JsonResponse class, overwrites the default encodingOptions with 0 value.

    public function __construct($data = null, $status = 200, $headers = [], $options = 0)
    {
        $this->encodingOptions = $options;

        parent::__construct($data, $status, $headers);
    }

The Symfony defaults are more secure than the 0 value defined by Laravel.

class JsonResponse extends Response
{
    // Encode <, >, ', &, and " characters in the JSON, making it also safe to be embedded into HTML.
    // 15 === JSON_HEX_TAG | JSON_HEX_APOS | JSON_HEX_AMP | JSON_HEX_QUOT
    const DEFAULT_ENCODING_OPTIONS = 15;

    protected $encodingOptions = self::DEFAULT_ENCODING_OPTIONS;

The "0" encodingOptions is not safe when the data is embeded into html

The same problem has been reported to Express : expressjs/express#3268

I know this problem is not easily exploitable with direct API call in web browsers and in all other cases, users should not print json in html context without html encoding it first.
But we never know how data will be used and frameworks should have defaults as secured as possible.

In this case, the default encoding options used by Symfony are more secure than the default 0 value of Illuminate\Http\JsonResponse.

Steps To Reproduce:

class TestController extends Controller
{
    public function test()
    {
        return Response::json('<script>alert("abc");</script>');
    }
}

It should return

"\u003Cscript\u003Ealert(\u0022abc\u0022);\u003C\/script\u003E"

Instead of

"<script>alert(\"abc\");<\/script>"

Thanks. :)
