Embed URLs never pass through the markdown parser, so the regex change in #1568 did not cover them and a javascript: URL in embed.url or embed.author.url still reached a live href. Adds ExportContext.EnsureSafeUrl, which returns the URL only when it parses as an absolute http or https URI, and applies it at the four embed anchors. An unsafe URL now takes the existing else branch, so the title and author text still render, just without a link. HtmlMarkdownVisitor.VisitLinkAsync uses the same helper and renders the link children without an anchor when the scheme is not allowed, so the three link regexes in MarkdownParser are no longer the only thing keeping unsafe schemes out of the export. |

DiscordChatExporter
| Development of this project is entirely funded by the community. Consider donating to support! |
DiscordChatExporter is an application that can be used to export message history from any Discord channel to a file. It works with direct messages, group messages, and server channels, and supports Discord's dialect of markdown as well as most other rich media features.
Warning
While DiscordChatExporter allows it, automating user accounts is against Discord TOS and may result in you getting banned. If possible, use a bot to export chat logs from accessible channels.
