Subject: net/http: add protections against misuse of ServeFile
X-Git-Tag: go1.6rc1~14
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.cypherpunks.su/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9b67a5de79af56541c48c95c6d7ddc8630e1d0dc;p=gostls13.git

net/http: add protections against misuse of ServeFile

Martin Lenord pointed out that bad patterns have emerged in online
examples of how to use ServeFile, where people pass r.URL.Path[1:] to
ServeFile. This is unsafe. Document that it's unsafe, and add some
protections.

Fixes #14110
