The java.net.URL constructor does not check whether the port value is negative
or greater than 65535 for http and ftp url's.


Here is the test demonstrating the bug:

------------------------ Test.java ---------------------------------------
import java.net.*;

public class Test
{
 public static void main(String argv[])
 {
   URL url[4];
   String host = "web2.javasoft.com";
   String file = "/index.html";
   int port = -20;
   int port1 = 65536;


   try {
     url[0] = new URL("ftp", host, port, file);
     url[1] = new URL("http", host, port, file);
     url[2] = new URL("ftp", host, port1, file);
     url[3] = new URL("http", host, port1, file);
   } catch(MalformedURLException e)
   {
       System.out.println("Passed. OKAY");
       System.exit(0);
   }
   catch(Exception e)
   {
     System.out.println("Unexpected exception:" + e);
     System.exit(-1);
   }
   
   System.out.println("No exceptions");
   System.exit(-1);

 }
   
}
------------------------- Output from the test ----------------------------
No exceptions
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
