Bug ID: 379195
Summary: Konversation can't handle IDN urls
Product: konversation
Version: 1.6
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: konversation-devel at kde.org
Reporter: bugs5.kde.org at sjau.ch
Target Milestone: ---
Well, I just read an article about IDN urls and how they are used for phishing.
One of the examples given was https://www.xn--80ak6aa92e.com/ (not apple) which
shows in some browsers as apple.com.
Anway, when I paste that url in Konversation and click on it to open it, an
error message pops up:
Malformed URL
Invalid hostname (contains invalid characters); source was "https://www..com/";
scheme = "https", host = "", path = "/"
The URL is correct but it seems Konversation can't handle IDN urls properly.
