From 610cc0ab1b760b2abaac92bd256b96191c46b941 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Miss Islington (bot)" <31488909+miss-islington@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 17 May 2023 14:41:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [3.11] gh-102153: Start stripping C0 control and space chars in `urlsplit` (GH-102508) (#104575) * gh-102153: Start stripping C0 control and space chars in `urlsplit` (GH-102508) `urllib.parse.urlsplit` has already been respecting the WHATWG spec a bit GH-25595. This adds more sanitizing to respect the "Remove any leading C0 control or space from input" [rule](https://url.spec.whatwg.org/GH-url-parsing:~:text=Remove%20any%20leading%20and%20trailing%20C0%20control%20or%20space%20from%20input.) in response to [CVE-2023-24329](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-24329). --------- (cherry picked from commit 2f630e1ce18ad2e07428296532a68b11dc66ad10) Co-authored-by: Illia Volochii Co-authored-by: Gregory P.

They may not raise errors on inputs that other applications consider +invalid. They may also succeed on some inputs that might not be considered +URLs elsewhere. Their purpose is for practical functionality rather than +purity. + +Instead of raising an exception on unusual input, they may instead return some +component parts as empty strings. Or components may contain more than perhaps +they should. + +We recommend that users of these APIs where the values may be used anywhere +with security implications code defensively. Do some verification within your +code before trusting a returned component part. Does that ``scheme`` make +sense? Is that a sensible ``path``? Is there anything strange about that +``hostname``? etc. + +What constitutes a URL is not universally well defined. Different applications +have different needs and desired constraints. For instance the living `WHATWG +spec`_ describes what user facing web clients such as a web browser require. +While :rfc:`3986` is more general. These functions incorporate some aspects of +both, but cannot be claimed compliant with either. The APIs and existing user +code with expectations on specific behaviors predate both standards leading us +to be very cautious about making API behavior changes. + .. _parsing-ascii-encoded-bytes: Parsing ASCII Encoded Bytes diff --git a/Lib/test/test_urlparse.py b/Lib/test/test_urlparse.py index 6b23ba604cceef..83ea618291e880 100644 --- a/Lib/test/test_urlparse.py +++ b/Lib/test/test_urlparse.py @@ -649,6 +649,65 @@ def test_urlsplit_remove_unsafe_bytes(self): self.assertEqual(p.scheme, "http") self.assertEqual(p.geturl(), "http://www.python.org/javascript:alert('msg')/?query=something#fragment") + def test_urlsplit_strip_url(self): + noise = bytes(range(0, 0x20 + 1)) + base_url = "http://User:Pass@www.python.org:080/doc/?query=yes#frag" + + url = noise.decode("utf-8") + base_url + p = urllib.parse.urlsplit(url) + self.assertEqual(p.scheme, "http") + self.assertEqual(p.netloc, "User:Pass@www.python.org:080") + self.assertEqual(p.path, "/doc/") + self.assertEqual(p.query, "query=yes") + self.assertEqual(p.fragment, "frag") + self.assertEqual(p.username, "User") + self.assertEqual(p.password, "Pass") + self.assertEqual(p.hostname, "www.python.org") + self.assertEqual(p.port, 80) + self.assertEqual(p.geturl(), base_url) + + url = noise + base_url.encode("utf-8") + p = urllib.parse.urlsplit(url) + self.assertEqual(p.scheme, b"http") + self.assertEqual(p.netloc, b"User:Pass@www.python.org:080") + self.assertEqual(p.path, b"/doc/") + self.assertEqual(p.query, b"query=yes") + self.assertEqual(p.fragment, b"frag") + self.assertEqual(p.username, b"User") + self.assertEqual(p.password, b"Pass") + self.assertEqual(p.hostname, b"www.python.org") + self.assertEqual(p.port, 80) + self.assertEqual(p.geturl(), base_url.encode("utf-8")) + + # Test that trailing space is preserved as some applications rely on + # this within query strings. + query_spaces_url = "https://www.python.org:88/doc/?query= " + p = urllib.parse.urlsplit(noise.decode("utf-8") + query_spaces_url) + self.assertEqual(p.scheme, "https") + self.assertEqual(p.netloc, "www.python.org:88") + self.assertEqual(p.path, "/doc/") + self.assertEqual(p.query, "query= ") + self.assertEqual(p.port, 88) + self.assertEqual(p.geturl(), query_spaces_url) + + p = urllib.parse.urlsplit("www.pypi.org ") + # That "hostname" gets considered a "path" due to the + # trailing space and our existing logic...
