[jira] [Created] (HTTPCLIENT-1968) Encoded forward slashes are not preserved when rewriting URI

Jay Modi created HTTPCLIENT-1968:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Encoded forward slashes are not preserved when rewriting URI
                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1968
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1968
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 4.5.7
            Reporter: Jay Modi
         Attachments: rewrite_preserve_forward_slash.diff

URIs that contain an encoded forward slash (%2F) are no longer preserved when the HTTP client executes. I came across this when upgrading from 4.5.2 to 4.5.7 and my requests that contained an encoded forward slash suddenly started failing. The appears to be due to decoding and re-encoding of the path that takes place in the URIUtils#rewriteURI method. I've attached a patch that restores the old behavior but if a URI contains two slashes in a row in addition to an encoded slash the encoded forward slash will be decoded.
