[issue14036] urlparse insufficient port property validation

[Senthil Kumaran]

Senthil Kumaran <senthil at uthcode.com> added the comment:

pass_to_cython(urlparse("http://google.de:999999**999999[to be calculated]").port)

is no different than sending

pass_to_cython(999999**999999[to be calculated])

In that case, would the former make a security loop hole in urlparse? Looks pretty contrived to me as an example for .port bug. 

However, I agree with one point in your assertion, namely that port be checked that it is within the range integer >= 1 and <= 65535. If it is not, return None as a response in port.
