Prevent redirect to Host (2) (#19175)
Unhelpfully Locations starting with `/\` will be converted by the browser to `//` because ... well I do not fully understand. Certainly the RFCs and MDN do not indicate that this would be expected. Providing "compatibility" with the (mis)behaviour of a certain proprietary OS is my suspicion. However, we clearly have to protect against this. Therefore we should reject redirection locations that match the regular expression: `^/[\\\\/]+` Reference #9678 Signed-off-by: Andrew Thornton <art27@cantab.net>
