            Bug ID: 97438
           Summary: URLs are not escaped by Punycode and are susceptible
                    to IDN attacks
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 5.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

LibreOffice does not seem to use Punycode to escape unsafe URLS. For example:

http://asĸ.com

http://ask.com

The first url is not the same as the second. It uses "ĸ" instead of "k".

This shows up with mouse over tool tips, and ctrl+click to open events.

This ODT file demonstrates the problem:

Sorry if this has already been reported. I have looked for a few days, and not
found any related bugs.
