http://help/ and http://chrome/ incorrectly redirecting to chrome://settings/help

Reported by sharman....@gmail.com, Jun 20 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/59.0.3071.104 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
http://help/

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Assume there's a host on the local network with a hostname of 'help' or 'chrome', and a web server is set up to listen on port 80.

1. Navigate to http://help/ or http://chrome/

What is the expected behavior?
The content from the machine on the network should be displayed.

What went wrong?
Chrome internally redirects to chrome://settings/help.

Does it occur on multiple sites: Yes

Is it a problem with a plugin? No 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

Chrome version: 59.0.3071.104  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: 

Probably caused by this commit:

https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git/+/76cc70a314ba7ae045745fd5117b98d1a5c200da%5E%21/#F0

Correction, during the redirect, the URI scheme remains as 'http', not 'chrome'.

http://help/ and http://chrome redirect to http://settings/help (which should be chrome://settings/help).

The redirect should only happen for scheme 'chrome'.
Hooray, multiple people reporting the same thing at the same time.

Please close, duplicate of:
