Server Adding Extra Parameters to Query String

I tried it with different frameworks from custom build to PhalconPHP.

It seems sometimes, on some servers when there is a specific parameter value, server is adding extra parameters to the query string.

This happens with index word specifically. For example if the URL is like this; http://example.com/index and when I dump $_GET values I get this;

array(1) {
  ["_url"]=>
  string(29) "/redirect:/public/index.html/"
}

However any other URL value which doesn't start with index acts as expected. For example when I dump $_GET for http://example.com/my-page I get;

array(1) {
  ["_url"]=>
  string(29) "/my-page"
}

My .htaccess

AddDefaultCharset UTF-8
DirectoryIndex index.php
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine on

    # CloudFlare SSL
    RewriteCond %{HTTP:CF-Visitor} '"scheme":"http"'
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{SERVER_NAME}/$1 [L]

    # Redirect WWW to NON-WWW
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.(.*)$ [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%1/$1 [R=301,L]

    # Public Root
    RewriteRule  ^$ public/    [L]
    RewriteRule  (.*) public/$1 [L]
</IfModule>

I googled and checked SOF for solutions but I wasn't so lucky. Any help would be appreciated.

This is usually the “fault” of MultiViews.

Try and disable it by adding

Options -MultiViews

to your .htaccess.

For more info on this topic, check
