URL Confusion When Scheme Not Supplied in medialize/uri.js

Quick fix

GHSA-g694-m8vq-gv9h — urijs: upgrade to the fixed version with the command below.

npm install urijs@1.19.11

Details

Medialize is a Javascript URL mutation library. When parsing a URL without a scheme and with excessive slashes, like ///www.example.com, URI.js will parse the hostname as null and the path as /www.example.com. Such behaviour is different from that exhibited by browsers, which will parse ///www.example.com as http://www.example.com instead. For example, the following will cause a redirect to http://www.example.com: A fix was released in version 1.19.11.
