  Target Milestone: ---

Request data displayed in the "Request view" or similar views is sanitized by
the html filter in the template. However, the main request list table is
generated via Datatables and is not sanitized. This can be demonstrated by
entering a malicious string, such as:

<script>alert('pwned');</script>

Into the request notes field, then displaying the requests table.

I've not yet investigated if column data that is generated via render functions
is affected, or whether it's just the columns that are passed through by
Datatables.

Investigate how this has been addressed elsewhere in Koha. Also, possible
mitigations can be seen here: https://datatables.net/manual/security
