url.c in GNU Wget through 1.24.5 mishandles semicolons in the userinfo subcomponent of a URI, and thus there may be insecure behavior in which data that was supposed to be in the userinfo subcomponent is misinterpreted to be part of the host subcomponent.

Weakness

Product A handles inputs or steps differently than Product B, which causes A to perform incorrect actions based on its perception of B’s state.
