What changed

  • Blocks the file URI scheme in GetResponseTextInternal before HttpWebRequest.Create is called
  • Callers get a false return instead of an unhandled error
  • No behavior change for http and https URLs
  • Reuses the existing IsValidUri check, so invalid URIs now fail earlier
  • Security fix that stops crafted URLs from reading files on the server
  • Behaviour changes for users or extensions.
