Upstream commit for this issue: https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/a5538c62293fa782fcc382d0635cfc0c8b9190e3 https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/4a89e726bd4d0571991dc22a9a1ad4509e8fe347 needed as dependency.
Currently php's FILTER_VALIDATE_URL check doesn't recognize some non-compliant RFC 3986 URLs and returns it as valid. This allows an attacker to craft URLs, which depending on how the URL filter checking is used in the application side, lead to Server Side Request Forgery.
