Description

If an international character, such as à is added to an IPsec PSK, it will cause the configuration to contain invalid XML upon save and the system will restore the previous configuration.

Input validation should reject such characters, or the field should be CDATA encoded if they are valid.

This is broken in both 2.1.x and 2.2.

Confirmed fixed for IPsec P1, PSK tab, and User PSK fields. Invalid characters are now properly rejected.
