           Summary: mod_proxy alters URIs when acting as a reverse proxy
           Product: Apache httpd-1.3
           Version: HEAD
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: FreeBSD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: mod_proxy
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ocapache@simplexity.net


This bug also appears in apache-2.0 (see bug report #15207).

The impact is that URLs containing escaped characters are not passed correctly
when using ProxyPass.  For example, a percent sign encoded in the URL ("%25")
will produce a bad request error.  To recreate the problem setup a ProxyPass
directive e.g.

ServerName www.example.com
ProxyPass /test http://inner.example.com

Now open: http://www.example.com/test/test%25

The result is: "Bad Request - Your browser sent a request that this server could
not understand.".
