#44456 [Com]: CURLOPT_URL error in parsing ftp url string given

ID: 44456 Comment by: daniel at haxx dot se Reported By: sergiocrz at hotmail dot com Status: Open Bug Type: cURL related Operating System: WinXP PHP Version: 5.2.5 New Comment: Those letters are not valid in a URL, described in RFC2396. (lib)curl expects and requires a valid URL. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-19 02:34:31] felipe@php.net > Why is it expected that curl returns false > ip when the url contains '#'? AFAIK, the problem isn't the '#', but the '@'. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-19 02:28:19] sergiocrz at hotmail dot com Why is it expected that curl returns false ip when the url contains '#'? If I use rawurlencode() to username and password CURL will consider that encoded string as a new username and password, it will not be decoded on exec. The returning error is: Access denied: 530. Thats because the user and pass are incorrect... By the results I have I still think there is a bug somewhere... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-19 00:09:18] felipe@php.net This seems expected. Normally app. accepts the format obtained for: http://docs.php.net/manual/en/function.rawurlencode.php Try using this function on login and password. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-17 16:27:31] sergiocrz at hotmail dot com Description: ------------ When an ftp username or password uses the character "#" and when I try to use it in curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://$ftp_user_name:$ftp_pass@$ftp_ip:$ftp_port$path"); cURL will not login with the correct user/pass combination nor the correct IP. Reproduce code: --------------- // using ex: ftp://%e$U^&:!@#$5%@123.145.123.145:456 $ftp_user_name = "%e$U^&" ; $ftp_pass = "!@#$5%" ; $ftp_ip = "123.145.123.145"; $ftp_port = 456; $path = "/"; $ch = curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp://$ftp_user_name:$ftp_pass@$ftp_ip:$ftp_port$path"); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 4); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FTPLISTONLY, 0); $result['filelist'] = curl_exec($ch); // content $result['error'] = curl_error($ch); $result['errno'] = curl_errno($ch); Expected result: ---------------- Loggin in with the correct $ftp_user_name = "%e$U^&" ; $ftp_pass = "!@#$5%" ; $ftp_ip = "123.145.123.145"; $ftp_port = 456; Actual result: -------------- cURL will connect to the IP: #$5%@123.145.123.145 as dysplayed by the error. As you can see the part before the ip "#$5%" belongs to the ftp_pass, so I think when curl is parsing the url string and encounters "#" (char(35)) it returns the wrong ip. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44456&edit=1
