Attributes and Elements

The following sections describe attributes, child elements, and parent elements.

Attributes

Attribute	Description
name	The scheme name for which this setting applies. The only supported values are name="http" and name="https".

Child Elements

None.

Parent Elements

Element	Description
<schemeSettings>	Specifies how a Uri will be parsed for specific schemes.

Remarks

By default, the System.Uri class un-escapes percent encoded path delimiters before executing path compression. This was implemented as a security mechanism against attacks like the following:

https://www.contoso.com/..%2F..%2F/Windows/System32/cmd.exe?/c+dir+c:\\

If this URI gets passed down to modules not handling percent encoded characters correctly, it could result in the following command being executed by the server:

c:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c dir c:\

For this reason, System.Uri class first un-escapes path delimiters and then applies path compression. The result of passing the malicious URL above to System.Uri class constructor results in the following URI:

https://www.microsoft.com/Windows/System32/cmd.exe?/c+dir+c:\\

This default behavior can be modified to not un-escape percent encoded path delimiters using the schemeSettings configuration option for a specific scheme.

Configuration Files

This element can be used in the application configuration file or the machine configuration file (Machine.config).

Example

The following code example shows a configuration used by the Uri class that removes any scheme settings for the http scheme.

<configuration>
  <uri>
    <schemeSettings>
      <remove name="http"/>
    </schemeSettings>
  </uri>
</configuration>
