Verify that unstructured data is sanitized to enforce safety measures such as allowed characters and length, and characters potentially harmful in given context should be escaped (e.g. names with Unicode or apostrophes, such as ねこ or O'Hara).

The second part of this sentence (or perhaps all of it) might fit better under 5.3 Input Sanitization and Output Encoding Requirements

Divided last part into 5.3.1, as it was all about CWE 116. No point in having a new item.
