URL: https://github.com/apache/struts/pull/1777#issuecomment-4952020874

   Thanks again — pushed two commits addressing points 1, 3, and the Locale 
import part of 4 (per-segment matching in
   containsMalformedPathSegment, and removed the now-redundant dot-checkin 
DefaultWebJarUrlProvider.split()).
   
   Still to follow in one more commit:
   - Small indentation cleanup and removing the now-unused `encoding` field 
(rest of point 4)
   - Replacing the denylist with a canonicalize approach (point 2) —  taking a 
bit more care with this one since it also means wiring the resolved path 
through buildPath()/split() rather than just validating and discarding it, so 
it'll take a little longer to get right.
   
   Will update this thread once that's up.

> buildPath() in DefaultStaticContentLoader applies URLDecoder.decode() to 
> resource paths that the servlet container has already decoded. This 
> redundant decode serves no purpose and conflicts with the servlet spec's 
> path handling contract.
> This patch removes the unnecessary decode, adds a shared 
> Validator.containsMalformedPathSegment() utility that rejects malformed 
> path segments (dot-dot sequences, backslash separators, and 
> percent-encoded forms), applies it in both the static content and WebJar 
> serving paths, documents the encoding contract on 
> RequestUtils.getServletPath(), and adds test coverage.
