            Bug ID: 245690
           Summary: string_utils decoder assumes UTF-8 and can crash when
                    encountering other encodings.
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: rreno at apple.com

The Micro sign in latin-1 is encoded differently from UTF-8. The Python UTF-8 codec fails if it encounters this symbol because we assume by default UTF-8. In particular, I've encountered the failure when the commit message generator and style checker tools are trying to parse https://github.com/web-platform-tests/wpt/blob/master/content-security-policy/script-src/hash-always-converted-to-utf-8/iso-8859-1.html#L13 on import (LayoutTests/imported/w3c/web-platform-tests/content-security-policy/script-src/hash-always-converted-to-utf-8/iso-8859-1.html).

This causes crashes due to an unhandled UnicodeDecodeError in our string_utils decoder implementation.
