------------------------------------
Summary: Supposedly invalid URLs are rendered as plain text
Key: MSHARED-429
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-429
Project: Maven Shared Components
Issue Type: Bug
Components: maven-reporting-impl
Affects Versions: maven-reporting-impl-2.3
Reporter: Jan Schultze
Priority: Minor
org.apache.maven.reporting.AbstractMavenReportRenderer#linkPatternedText(String)
from org.apache.maven.shared::maven-reporting-impl validates URLs before
rendering. If the validation fails URLs are rendered as plain text. The class
uses an (in recent versions) deprecated UrlValidator from commons-validator
which considers unqualified (i.e. local) host names and fully qualified domain
names with a top level domain longer than 4 characters as invalid (such as the
special use domain .local or more recent TLDs as .academy and .paris). This
makes using maven sites in a private network with a .local top level domain
cumbersome as browsing (proprietary) dependencies site(s) requires users to
manually copy and paste the URL.
