<h3 id="semicolons">URL query parsing</h3>
|

<!-- CL 325697, CL 326309 -->
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
The <code>net/url</code> and <code>net/http</code> packages used to accept
|
||||
<code>";"</code> (semicolon) as a setting separator in URL queries, in
|
||||
addition to <code>"&"</code> (ampersand). Now, settings with non-percent-encoded
|
||||
semicolons are rejected and <code>net/http</code> servers will log a warning to
|
||||
<a href="/pkg/net/http#Server.ErrorLog"><code>Server.ErrorLog</code></a>
|
||||
when encountering one in a request URL.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
For example, before Go 1.17 the <a href="/pkg/net/url#URL.Query"><code>Query</code></a>
|
||||
method of the URL <code>example?a=1;b=2&c=3</code> would have returned
|
||||
<code>map[a:[1] b:[2] c:[3]]</code>, while now it returns <code>map[c:[3]]</code>.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
When encountering such a query string,
|
||||
<a href="/pkg/net/url#URL.Query"><code>URL.Query</code></a>
|
||||
and
|
||||
<a href="/pkg/net/http#Request.FormValue"><code>Request.FormValue</code></a>
|
||||
ignore any settings that contain a semicolon,
|
||||
<a href="/pkg/net/url#ParseQuery"><code>ParseQuery</code></a>
|
||||
returns the remaining settings and an error, and
|
||||
<a href="/pkg/net/http#Request.ParseForm"><code>Request.ParseForm</code></a>
|
||||
and
|
||||
<a href="/pkg/net/http#Request.ParseMultipartForm"><code>Request.ParseMultipartForm</code></a>
|
||||
return an error but still set <code>Request</code> fields based on the
|
||||
remaining settings.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
<code>net/http</code> users can restore the original behavior by using the new
|
||||
<a href="/pkg/net/http#AllowQuerySemicolons"><code>AllowQuerySemicolons</code></a>
|
||||
handler wrapper. This will also suppress the <code>ErrorLog</code> warning.
|
||||
Note that accepting semicolons as query separators can lead to security issues
|
||||
if different systems interpret cache keys differently.

||||

When <a href="/pkg/crypto/tls#Config.NextProtos"><code>Config.NextProtos</code></a>

|
||||
no mutually supported protocol, the connection is closed with the
|
||||
<code>no_application_protocol</code> alert, as required by RFC 7301. This
|
||||
helps mitigate <a href="https://alpaca-attack.com/">the ALPACA cross-protocol attack</a>.

As an exception, when the value <code>"h2"</code> is included in the server's
