445168 - incorrect address format after CONNECT when using numeric IPv6 address and SSL through proxy

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Networking: HTTP, defect)

Description

[visibilis]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052906 Firefox/3.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052906 Firefox/3.0

When connecting to e.g. https://[fd00::1]:1000 using a proxy, I see the following with tcpdump:
CONNECT fd00::1:1000
Squid will reply, that it cannot retrieve the URL: fd00:443.
IE sends this:
CONNECT [fd00::1]:1000
and it succeeds.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set a proxy for https
2. Try to connect to a site using numeric IPv6 address and SSL
Actual Results:  
The proxy replies with an error.

Question:

    // scope id is not needed for Host header.                                
    int scopeIdPos = host.FindChar('%');   

I thought '%' was used for zones in IPv6.

Yes, but the scope ID is only meaningful on the client. The client's scope ID is meaningless on the server.
