Summary
@asymmetric-effort/specifyjs: URL parse failure silently allows request
Details

Finding

Location: core/src/shared/secure-fetch.ts:42-45

When new URL() throws a parse error, the assertSecureUrl function returned without throwing, silently allowing the request to proceed without HTTPS validation.

Status

Fixed in v0.2.136 — The catch block now throws an error instead of silently returning.
