The guidelines https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#host-parsing make a lot of sense to me. Python should refuse hostnames with "[" unless * the hostname starts with "[" * the hostname ends with "]" * the string between [] is a valid IPv6 address (full or shortened, without or with correctly quoted scope id) Python should refuse any hostname with forbidden chars "\x00\n\r #%/:?@", too. ---------- nosy: +christian.heimes _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36338> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
