   Could you please elaborate how a URI is not user input and how it can be 
prevented that a user calls a URI on a web application? I can't follow you.
   Relative paths are explicitly allowed in URIs, and that includes parent 
directories as well, see the mentioned RFC that defines URIs and how to handle 
them.
   This PR was meant to fix a bug in the path processing of Tomcat because it 
does not decode slashes in paths and that leads to the stripping of the 
remainder of the URI after the `;` character. I have also added test cases for 
this issue.
