xss_clean trunchating encoded string

[eluser]Armchair Samurai[/eluser]
It seems that XSS clean is doing something odd - rather than converting to character entities, it is simply truncating the input string.

Consider this input string:

Code:

<p>この集まりのトピックやテーマは、Judith Costello とJurgen Haverの活動 や彼らの本<a href="http://www.amazon.co.jp/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/250-0763964-7014653?__mk_ja_JP=�J�^�J�i&url=search-alias=aps&field;-keywords=Zen+Parenting:+The+Art+of+Learning+What+You+Already+Know&Go;.x=12&Go;.y=14">Zen Parenting（禅式子育て）</a>に負うところが大きいです。</p>

Some basic HTML. Now, if I run this string through the xss_filter, the href is truchated to

Code:

http://www.amazon.co.jp/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/250-0763964-7014653?__mk_ja_JP=

and all text afterwards is likewise removed. I hope that's understandable, but the forum also appears to have a bug which messes up the text and I am unable to post the actual string returned.

I'm running CI 1.6.3 and PHP 5.2.1. I believe this is a bug - can anyone duplicate the error?

Oh good. I've just notice the forum has messed up my code in the first example as well and replaced the text with a bunch of garbage characters. The mojibake character should be:

Code:

% 83J% 83% 5E% 83J% 83i

(without the spaces, of course).
