A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :

Class: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.17.0-openjdk-amd64!/java.base/java/net/SocksSocketImpl.class
Example of broken URI: socket://%5bfc00:0:0:0:0:0:6440:102%5d:6200

Likely problem:

```

                String host = epoint.getHostString();
                if (epoint.getAddress() instanceof Inet6Address && !host.startsWith("[") && host.indexOf(58) >= 0) {
                    host = "[" + host + "]";
                }

                URI uri;
                try {
                    uri = new URI("socket://" + ParseUtil.encodePath(host) + ":" + epoint.getPort());
                } catch (URISyntaxException e) {
                    assert false : e;

                    uri = null;
                }
```

the host is properly put in square brackets in
host = "[" + host + "]";

however this should not escape the square brackets:
uri = new URI("socket://" + ParseUtil.encodePath(host) + ":" + epoint.getPort());

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
I do not know what the exact source is but the call comes from oracle.ons.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
probably as a normal url should look like
socket://[fc00:0:0:0:0:0:6440:102]:6200
ACTUAL -
socket://%5bfc00:0:0:0:0:0:6440:102%5d:6200 - resulting in a mangled url object
