Description Sven-Jacobi 2013-10-24 09:37:10 UTC
Created attachment 88071 [details]
demo document with http hyperlink

The attached document contains following hyperlink: "http://münchen.de"

if exporting this document to pdf the hyperlink is saved as file url, in my case: file:///Users/sj/Downloads/http:%2F%2Fm%C3%BCnchen.de

Even if it is not allowed to use special unicode characters within the domain name (punycode should be used instead and so following url would be correct: http://xn--mnchen-3ya.de) the http scheme should not change to a file url exposing some internals of my file system.

Comment 4 Jean-Baptiste Faure 2015-10-18 17:20:59 UTC
Still reproducible with version 5.0.4.0+ under Ubuntu 15.04 x86-64.

Added security keyword because this bug show private data about the file system of the machine where the pdf was generated.

Security/privacy problem -> severity level set to major

Best regards. JBF
