Michael Osipov commented on MSHARED-607:
----------------------------------------
This basically reverts MSHARED-429 because it considers {{.local}} hostnames as
valid which simply aren't. It is an abuse of DNS to a domain and TLD you aren't
in control of. Fix your local, private DNS setup.
> Simplify UrlValidationUtil to modern rules

> Key: MSHARED-607
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-607
> Project: Maven Shared Components
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: maven-reporting-impl
> Affects Versions: maven-reporting-impl 2.4
> Reporter: Michael Osipov
> Assignee: Michael Osipov
> Fix For: maven-reporting-impl 3.0
>
>
> The util was written years where some stuff did not exist (like IPv6) and
> some stuff was allowed which is discouraged and consider wrong (like
> {{.local}}).
> What can be cleaned up:
> * Use {{Validator}}'s default schemes, there is no reason to exclude {{ftp}}
> * Use default local URL validator
> * Drop support for {{.local}}, it is discouraged, a specially-reserved TLD
> for mDNS and can cause issues on a heterogenous network.
