761181 - SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 won't work properly.

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core :: Networking, defect, P3)

Description

[Joe]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:12.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/12.0
Build ID: 20120420145725

Steps to reproduce:

I try to connect FireFox 12.0 to my SOCKS4/5 Server. FireFox is hung up. IE9 and Opera work fine. As a Java Programmer I do some debugging and find out that the initial Browser's request from FireFox to my SOCKS server was wrong.


Actual results:

SOCKS4: Client -> Server: 04 01 p1 p2 i1 i2 i3 i4 00. Where p1/P2 (hi/lo byte) for the Port and I1...i4 are the IP address of the site.
BUT FireFox sends the wrong IP as 00 00 00 01
Same for SOCKS5


Expected results:

It should be that i1..i4 the 4 bytes address of the website. Also NOT 00 00 00 01
