CVE-2020-7071

MEDIUM 5.3EPSS 2.98%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.98%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

In PHP versions 7.3.x below 7.3.26, 7.4.x below 7.4.14 and 8.0.0, when validating URL with functions like filter_var($url, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL), PHP will accept an URL with invalid password as valid URL. This may lead to functions that rely on URL being valid to mis-parse the URL and produce wrong data as components of the URL.
