-------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
> Strange Behavior Parsing Action Requests
> ----------------------------------------
>
> Key: WW-4802
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WW-4802
> Project: Struts 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.3.32
> Reporter: Chad Cravens
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.3.33
>
>
> There seems to be something very odd about Struts method for parsing Action
> requests. I am currently supporting a large Struts-based system, and have
> noticed the following behavior in our application.
> When a GET request is made to an action method we get the following expected
> responses:
> http://www.example.com/app/defined-action.action -> 200 OK
> http://www.example.com/app/not-defined.action -> 404 NOT FOUND
> However, whenever we introduce a space character (%20) anwhere in the action
> name, Struts will return a 200 OK no matter whether the action exists or not.
> For example, we are seeing the following behavior:
> http://www.example.com/app/defined-action%20.action -> 200 OK
> http://www.example.com/app/not-defined%20.action -> 200 OK
> http://www.example.com/app/%20.action -> 200 OK
> http://www.example.com/app/defined-actio.action -> 404 NOT FOUND
> It seems that if the request ends in .action and has a %20 anywhere in the
> name, Struts will always return 200 OK. I would assume that it should return
> 404.
> We are actually running version 2.3.32
> (https://struts.apache.org/docs/version-notes-2332.html) but this was not
> available in the version selection dropdown, so I selected 2.3.31
