BUG/MAJOR: h2: verify that :path starts with a '/' before concatenating it
Tim Düsterhus found that while the H2 path is checked for non-emptiness,
invalid chars and '*', a test is missing to verify that except for '*',
it always starts with exactly one '/'. During the reconstruction of the
full URI when passing to HTX, this missing test allows to affect the
apparent authority by appending a port number or a suffix name.
This only affects H2-to-H2 communications, as H2-to-H1 do not use the
full URI. Like for previous fix, the following rule inserted before
other ones in the frontend is sufficient to renormalize the internal
URI and let haproxy see the same authority as the target server:
http-request set-uri %[url]
This needs to be backported to 2.2. Earlier versions do not rebuild a
full URI using the authority and will fail on the malformed path at the
HTTP layer, so they are safe.
