HTTP::path -normalized (TMOS 13) issue?

According to the Wiki,

HTTP::path -normalized

the normalization involves lower-casing, removing unnecessary directory traversals, convert from microsoft style %uxxxx form to the standard %xx hex form, bytes not allowed in a uri are normalised to their percent-encoded representation, bytes percent-encoded when they don't need to be are changed to their normal representation

My experience (TMOS 13.1) is that:

• conversion to lower case does not work at all!

• "%2E%2E"

  is converted to

  ".."

  (OK)

• "/foo/../bar"

  is converted to

  "/bar"

  (OK)

However (FAIL):

• "/foo/%2E%2E/bar"

  is (only) converted to

  "/foo/../bar"

  .

It seems that directory traversal normalization is (incorrectly) performed before %-normalization. I would expect to first do %-normalization and then normalize directory traversal...

So, in order to perform normalization correctly, I need to do this (I need to retain the original URI in the request to the pool member):

  set origPath [HTTP::path]
  set normPath [string tolower [HTTP::path -normalized]]
  HTTP::path $normPath
  set normPath [HTTP::path -normalized]
  HTTP::path $origPath
  log local0. "Path  : \"$origPath\" --> \"$normPath\""

I would have expected to do this, though:

  set normPath [HTTP::path -normalized]
  log local0. "Path  : \"[HTTP::path]\" --> \"$normPath\""

Is there a more elegant way to perform normalization on the URI/PATH?

And can this be fixed, please?
