| What should be correct behavior? Raise an exception, return '[::1]spam' as hostname, or left all as is? |

| I think we should start raising an exception in 3.5 (backwards incompatible change to back-port it) |

| Here is a patch for Python 3.5 which breaks backward compatibility: urlparse functions now raise a ValueError if the IPv6 address, port or host is invalid. Examples of invalid URLs: - "HTTP://WWW.PYTHON.ORG:65536/doc/#frag": 65536 is invalid - "http://www.example.net:foo" - "http://::1/" - "http://[127.0.0.1]/" - "http://[host]/" According to unit tests, Python 3.4 is more tolerant: it only raises an error when the port number is read (obj.port) from an URL with an invalid port. There error is not raised when the whole URL is parsed. Is it ok to break backward compatibility? |

| My patch "urlparse.patch" may be modified to fix also #18191 in Python 2.7, 3.3 and 3.4: splitport() should handle IPv6 ("[::1]:80") and auth ("user:passowrd@host") but not raises an exception. |

| splitport() shouldn't handle auth, it should be called after auth is dropped with splituser(). The patch makes URL parsing slower, especially URLs with IPv6 addresses. $ ./python -m timeit -s "from urllib.parse import urlparse, clear_cache" -- "urlparse('http://python.org:80'); clear_cache()" Unpatched: 10000 loops, best of 3: 70.3 usec per loop Patched: 10000 loops, best of 3: 105 usec per loop $ ./python -m timeit -s "from urllib.parse import urlparse, clear_cache" -- "urlparse('http://[2001:4802:7901:0:e60a:1375:0:5]:80'); clear_cache()" Unpatched: 10000 loops, best of 3: 71.1 usec per loop Patched: 1000 loops, best of 3: 239 usec per loop |

| I suspect the proposed patch here would make some of the special error handling for the “port” property redundant, and would compete with my patch for Issue 20059, which raises ValueError in more cases when “port” is accessed, rather than returning None. There should also be test cases (and maybe documentation or fixes?) to illustrate the behaviour of parsing: * http://[fe80::a%25en1] (RFC 6874-style scoped IPv6 address with zone identifier) * http://[v1.fe80::a+en1] (RFC 3986 IPvFuture format, using <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-sweet-uri-zoneid-01> style address) |

| With optimizations in and weaken IPv6 check the implementation of urlsplit() can be faster. $ ./python -m timeit -s "from urllib.parse import urlparse, clear_cache" -- "urlparse('http://python.org:80'); clear_cache()" 10000 loops, best of 3: 86.3 usec per loop $ ./python -m timeit -s "from urllib.parse import urlparse, clear_cache" -- "urlparse('http://[2001:4802:7901:0:e60a:1375:0:5]:80'); clear_cache()" 10000 loops, best of 3: 88.6 usec per loop |

| I think some further consideration around this change is worthwhile: Currently, urllib.parse.split* methods seem to do inconsistent validation around the data they're splitting. For example: (None for an invalid port) >>> parse.splitnport('example.com:foo') ('example.com', None) Whereas other split* methods do not: (Auth part should be URL-encoded) >>> parse.splituser('u@ser:p@ssword@example.com:80') ('u@ser:p@ssword', 'example.com:80') And others are just plain incorrect: (:bad should be the port as defined by the ABNF 'authority = [ userinfo "@" ] host [ ":" port ]') >>> parse.splitport('example.com:bad') ('example.com:bad', None) However, none of these cases (currently) raise exceptions. Looking at urllib.parse, two large motivations behind it are splitting and parsing. In my mind, splitting should solely be responsible for splitting input based on RFC-defined delimiters. Parsing on the other hand, should be responsible for both splitting as necessary as well as input validation. It may also make sense to add simple validation functions to the module to comply with the "batteries included" philosophy, but that's a topic for another issue. My concern with the proposed patch is that it adds further inconsistency to split* methods: Before patch: >>> parse.urlsplit('http://[::1]spam:80') SplitResult(scheme='http', netloc='[::1]spam:80', path='', query='', fragment='') After patch: >>> parse.urlsplit('http://[::1]spam:80') Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "/Volumes/src/p/cpython/Lib/urllib/parse.py", line 350, in urlsplit netloc, url = _splitnetloc(url, 2) File "/Volumes/src/p/cpython/Lib/urllib/parse.py", line 324, in _splitnetloc raise ValueError('Invalid IPv6 URL') (While the above examples still yield the same results and don't raise exceptions) I do think that the validation should be done and I agree that an exception should be raised, but it should be done at the urlparse level, not on split (in this case, due to the change to _splitnecloc). |

| > splitport() shouldn't handle auth, it should be called after auth is dropped with splituser(). Why shouldn't splitport() handle auth? Are you suggesting that in the eyes of splitport() that "user:password@host:port" should be invalid? >>> parse.splitport('user:password@host:80') ('user:password@host', '80') Seems to be reasonable behaviour to me. Why add the artificial constraint of calling splituser() first? |

| To me, the only difference between urlsplit() and urlparse() is that urlsplit() does not treat parameters following a semicolon specially. The documentation tends to agree with this view. So whatever exceptions are raised by urlparse() should also be raised by urlsplit() for consistency. Also, I doubt it is worth worrying about the finer details of splitport() or whatever, because they are meant to be deprecated and not used externally, except for backwards compatibility. |

| See also for a possible security issue for host of value "benign.com[attacker.com]" (spam[::1] format) where attacker.com is parsed as the host name assuming presence of [ and ] to be a IPV6 address without validation of the value attacker.com inside [] to be a valid IPV6 address. As a datapoint input "http://[::1]spam" raises exception in Java, golang and Ruby. Browser's JS console returns invalid URL. I too would like exception being raised but not sure at which level. Ruby seems to use a regex : https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/trunk/lib/uri/rfc3986_parser.rb#L6 Java parseurl : http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/file/c4c225b49c5f/src/java.base/share/classes/java/net/URLStreamHandler.java#l124 golang : https://github.com/golang/go/blob/50bd1c4d4eb4fac8ddeb5f063c099daccfb71b26/src/net/url/url.go#L587 See also https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#host-parsing If input starts with U+005B ([), then: If input does not end with U+005D (]), validation error, return failure. Return the result of IPv6 parsing input with its leading U+005B ([) and trailing U+005D (]) removed. |
