Whitespace characters are not removed from the beginning of the protocol, so URLs are not parsed properly and protocol validation mechanisms may fail.
Patched in 1.19.9
Remove leading whitespace from values before passing them to URI.parse (e.g. via .href(value)
or new URI(value)
), e.g. by using
function remove_whitespace(url){
const whitespace = /^[\x00-\x20\u00a0\u1680\u2000-\u200a\u2028\u2029\u202f\u205f\u3000\ufeff]+/;
url = url.replace(whitespace, '')
return url
}
