Bug #: 31294
Summary: ConfirmEdit confused by protocol-relative URLs
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: any
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: major
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: ConfirmEdit (CAPTCHA extension)
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Blocks: 20342
Classification: Unclassified
A IP of de.wiki was telling, that he get a CAPTCHA for a edit, where only a
comma is changed[1].
In my opinion is this a problem with protocol-relative URLs.
The page includes a fullurl to commons. Before the edit the database contains a
http link to commons, after the reparse due to the edit the link to commons is
changed to a protocol-relative URL and ConfirmEdit is seeing a different and
trigger the CAPTCHA -> bad in this case.
We can fix this by editing all templates with fullurl to trigger a reparse with
the Job Queue, but that sounds like many load for the server and also fixed
that problem only on de.wiki.
