OWASP WAF Naxsi bypass vulnerability in naxsi_unescape_uri function can be exploited to bypass WAF rules. Affected version is all. Patch provided for fixing the issue

Code
`OWASP WAF Naxsi bypass Vulnerability  
  
Certain unspecified input is not properly handed in  
naxsi_src/naxsi_utils.c naxsi_unescape_uri(u_char **dst, u_char **src,  
size_t size, ngx_uint_t type) before being used to filtered. This can  
be exploited to bypass some WAF rules.  
  
Naxsi site  
https://code.google.com/p/naxsi/  
  
Affected  
All the version  
  
My site  
http://safe3.com.cn/  
  
My nick name is Safe3  
  
It happens like that,the naxsi_unescape_uri function process the % url  
decode,if the next char after the % is a hex char and not after the  
hex char,then it will drop the % and the next char.So if we input a  
sql keyword "s%elect",it will come to "slect" instead,this is not the  
standard url decode way.Such as the IIS asp,it will process the  
"s%elect" as a result of "select",so we can bypass some  
WAF rules just like that.  
  
I afford a standard url decode function patch as the follow to fix this issue:  
void  
ngx_unescape_uri(u_char **dst, u_char **src, size_t size, ngx_uint_t type)  
{  
u_char *d, *s, ch, c, decoded;  
enum {  
sw_usual = 0,  
sw_quoted,  
sw_quoted_second  
} state;  
  
d = *dst;  
s = *src;  
  
state = 0;  
decoded = 0;  
  
while (size--) {  
  
ch = *s++;  
  
switch (state) {  
case sw_usual:  
if (ch == '?'  
&& (type & (NGX_UNESCAPE_URI|NGX_UNESCAPE_REDIRECT)))  
{  
*d++ = ch;  
goto done;  
}  
  
if (ch == '%'&&size>1) {  
ch=*s;  
c = (u_char) (ch | 0x20);  
if ((ch >= '0' && ch <= '9')||(c >= 'a' && c <= 'f')) {  
ch=*(s+1);  
c = (u_char) (ch | 0x20);  
if ((ch >= '0' && ch <= '9')||(c >= 'a' && c <= 'f')) {  
state = sw_quoted;  
break;  
}  
}  
*d++ = '%';  
break;

*d++ = ' ';  
break;

}  
  
c = (u_char) (ch | 0x20);  
if (c >= 'a' && c <= 'f') {  
decoded = (u_char) (c - 'a' + 10);  
state = sw_quoted_second;  
break;  
}  
  
/* the invalid quoted character */  
  
state = sw_usual;  
  
*d++ = ch;

if (type & NGX_UNESCAPE_REDIRECT) {  
if (ch > '%' && ch < 0x7f) {  
*d++ = ch;  
break;  
}  
  
*d++ = '%'; *d++ = *(s - 2); *d++ = *(s - 1);  
  
break;  
}  
  
*d++ = ch;  
  
break;  
}  
  
c = (u_char) (ch | 0x20);  
if (c >= 'a' && c <= 'f') {  
ch = (u_char) ((decoded << 4) + c - 'a' + 10);
