Bug #9385

closed

open-uri always uses proxy set as env var even if proxy flag is set to nil

Added by toch (Christophe Philemotte) about 10 years ago. Updated about 10 years ago.

Target version:

[ruby-core:59650]

Description

According to doc http://ruby-doc.org/stdlib-2.1.0/libdoc/open-uri/rdoc/OpenURI.html we can disable the proxy by doing

open("http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/raa.html", :proxy => nil)

and "environment variables for proxy are ignored and connection will be made to a server directly". But it is not. The environment variable is still considered and used (cf attached script and logs).

After digging the code, I think it's because Net::HTTP.new is called without passing p_addr to nil. If I'm not wrong, the attached patch is a possible solution to fix it.
