Research direction

Search the TypeScript source for url.parse() usages and inspect the possible candidates described in the linked Azure Pipelines issue. Determine which usage causes the warning, then verify that the affected scenarios no longer use the deprecated API and that the relevant existing checks still pass.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Area: NodeApi triage

url.parse() is deprecated, but is used in this library which can result in a similar error in many Azure Devops pipelines tasks.

(node:2582) [DEP0169] DeprecationWarning: `url.parse()` behavior is not standardized and prone to errors that have security implications. Use the WHATWG URL API instead. CVEs are not issued for `url.parse()` vulnerabilities.
(Use `node --trace-deprecation ...` to show where the warning was created)

See https://github.com/microsoft/azure-pipelines-tasks/issues/21565 for possible candidates.
