           Summary: Do not do HTTP Refresh to javascript: or other
                    dangerous URI schemes
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Page Loading
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: scarybeasts at gmail.com


Patch to follow.
It brings WebKit in line with IE, Firefox and Opera.

See:
http://code.google.com/p/browsersec/wiki/Part2#Redirection_restrictions

The proposed whitelist is fairly restrictive. We could feasibly add "data" if
you wanted, since the data: protocol causes a change of document.domain.
