Ivan Larionov updated VALIDATOR-467:
------------------------------------
Description:
{code:java}
import org.apache.commons.validator.routines.UrlValidator;
...
private static final String[] schemes = {"http", "https"};
private static final UrlValidator urlValidator = new UrlValidator(schemes,
UrlValidator.ALLOW_LOCAL_URLS + UrlValidator.ALLOW_2_SLASHES);
...
urlValidator.isValid("https://example.com//some_path/path/";)
{code}
This returns `false`. However such URL is valid if authority is not {{null}}.
The reason it returns false is this code in the validator:
https://github.com/apache/commons-validator/blob/a3771313c9f1833abf32c7c294ad1de4810e532d/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/validator/routines/UrlValidator.java#L452-L461
{code:java}
try {
URI uri = new URI(null,null,path,null);
String norm = uri.normalize().getPath();
if (norm.startsWith("/../") // Trying to go via the parent dir
|| norm.equals("/..")) { // Trying to go to the parent dir
return false;
}
} catch (URISyntaxException e) {
return false;
}
{code}
{{//some_path}} is invalid if authority is null
{{//some_path}} is valid if authority is not null
was:
{code:java}
import org.apache.commons.validator.routines.UrlValidator;
...
private static final UrlValidator urlValidator = new UrlValidator(schemes,
UrlValidator.ALLOW_LOCAL_URLS + UrlValidator.ALLOW_2_SLASHES);

{code:java}

if (norm.startsWith("/../") // Trying to go via the parent dir
|| norm.equals("/..")) { // Trying to go to the parent dir
return false;
}
} catch (URISyntaxException e) {
return false;
}
{code}
{{//some_path}} is invalid if authority is null
{{//some_path}} is valid if authority is not null
> URL validator fails if path starts with double slash
