[issue14036] urlparse insufficient port property validation

[zulla]

zulla <dan at defendassist.com> added the comment:

we should at least check if the .port attribute is an intereger >= 1 and <= 65535. _because_ this is the only valid port range. otherwise, it is no valid port. but it may be a integer overflow attack attempt

when a developer uses .port, he is counting on the result being valid
