URLs containing a username or password, like user:pass@host, are now rejected during normalization

What

A URL-handling function that previously accepted any http or https URL now rejects URLs that embed a username or password, such as user:pass@host. Instead of processing the URL, it returns nothing.

Why

URLs with embedded credentials can leak sensitive information or be used to disguise the real destination of a link. Rejecting them closes off that risk.
