Sergey Beryozkin commented on CXF-4207: --------------------------------------- Tomcat definitely blocks encoded forward or backward slashes by default. Try system properties: org.apache.tomcat.util.buf.UDecoder.ALLOW_ENCODED_SLASH=true org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.ALLOW_BACKSLASH=true ex, I can get %2F passed to the demo service after setting the 1st property. Please confirm CXF works as expected > CXF interprets URL-encoded slashes in PathParam prior to method dispatch > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CXF-4207 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-4207 > Project: CXF > Issue Type: Bug > Components: JAX-RS > Affects Versions: 2.4.2, 2.5.3 > Reporter: Matt Parker > > For a method which handles, for example, "@Path(/rest/{value})": if either a > forward or backward slash is encoded and provided as part of "{value}", CXF > will interpret the encoded slash as a URI separator, rather than as a part of > "{value}". > For example, "GET /rest/my%5Cvalue" will be interpreted as "GET > /rest/my\value" prior to dispatching, and will then fail with a 404, rather > than passing "my\value" to the method handling the "/rest/{value}" URI. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
