Lilian Iatco updated OFBIZ-6506:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
In Ofbiz form need to escape characters from description column in a 
display-entity tag to avoid XSS attacks.

{code}<display-entity entity-name="Table" description="${description}" >{code}

I tried to use bsh, as following:

{code}<display-entity entity-name="Table" description="${bsh: 
org.apache.commons.lang.StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml(&quot;${description}&quot;)}">{code}

But I get this error:
{code}
Error rendering screen 
[component://my/widget/CommonScreens.xml#GlobalDecorator]: 
java.lang.IllegalStateException: This object has been flagged as immutable 
(unchangeable), probably because it came from an Entity Engine cache. Cannot 
set a value in an immutable entity object. 
(This object has been flagged as immutable (unchangeable), probably because it
