CX Stored_XSS @ app/data/contributions-dao.js [master]

Stored_XSS issue exists @ app/data/contributions-dao.js in branch master

Method function at line 60 of app\data\contributions-dao.js gets data from the database, for the contributions element. This element’s value then flows through the code without being properly filtered or encoded and is eventually displayed to the user in method contributionsDAO.getByUserId at line 12 of app\routes\contributions.js. This may enable a Stored Cross-Site-Scripting attack.
