How it works

Repository administrators You can enable the serving of static web pages for any existing branch or tag in the repository settings screen. Once enabled, the base URL for pages in this branch or tag is being displayed next to the branch or tag name.

Web pages are available under the following URL: /pages/<PROJECT>/<REPOSITORY>/<BRANCH-OR-TAG>

If there is no index.html file available in the root level of a branch or tag, you need to link to the page directly by appending the file path to the URL. Example: /pages/<PROJECT>/<REPOSITORY>/<BRANCH-OR-TAG>/browse/<PATH>/<TO>/<FILE>.html

Once pages have been enabled for a branch or a tag, users will be able to you can view HTML files of this branch or tag directly in Bitbucket. When clicking on open Click Open in the file browser of this branch or tag , to render the page will be rendered full screen, without the Bitbucket layout.

Security

Access to web pages is based on repository permissions. Users need at least read access to the repository to view web pages in Bitbucket. For security reasons, by default, pages are not available unavailable for branches or tags in personal repositories by default. But in the plugin settings, you can configure which groups are allowed to can enable pages in personal repositories.

XSS Attacks

For users who want to still use the plugin and are worried about potentially malicious content in git repositories, weWe've added an option to disable JavaScript on rendered pages to reduce the risk of allowing potentially malicious content in git repositories. You can disable JavaScript either on a global level or a repository level. Another way to host malicious safely

Another method for reducing the risk of XSS vulnerability is to configure an external domain.
