wvengen commented on CB-14048:
------------------------------

I think there's still an edge-case where AllowedSchemes is present in 
config.xml but its value is the empty string. I would expect this to mean: no 
allowed schemes. Yet this would function like a wildcard where all custom urls 
are accepted (if I read the code correctly).

Would be willing to submit a PR, but as CB-14188 probably fixes that as a 
side-effect, I'll wait for that.

>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: cordova-plugin-inappbrowser
>            Reporter: Reed Richards
>            Priority: Minor
>
> The new AllowSchemes introduced with [email protected] doesn't check if  
> _AllowSchemes_ contains  empty string after having being loaded, respectively 
> only if _null_, which could lead to error in case a custom scheme is use but 
> not set as white listed schema 
> What I mean is that, if no _preference_ would be set in _config.xml_ but a 
> custom scheme would be used (my case) then the variable _allowSchemes_ won't 
> be _null_ but will contains an _empty string_
>  
> In InAppBrowser.java
>  
> {code:java}
> else if (!url.startsWith("http:") && !url.startsWith("https:") && 
> url.matches("^[a-z]*://.*?$")) {
>     if (allowedSchemes == null) {
>         String allowed = preferences.getString("AllowedSchemes", "");
>         allowedSchemes = allowed.split(",");
>     }
>     if (allowedSchemes != null) { // <------- If  preference AllowedSchemes 
> is not specified, variable allowedSchemes not gonna be null but an array 
> containing an empty string
>        for (String scheme : allowedSchemes) { 
>            if (url.startsWith(scheme)) { 
>               if (url.startsWith(scheme)) { // <------ which leads to the 
> problem "urlidontwanttowhilelist://".startsWith("") == true{code}
>   
> I would like to improve this check for example like following
>  
> {code:java}
> if (url.startsWith(scheme) && !"".equals(scheme)) {
> {code}
>  
>  Thx in advance for the improvement
