URI malformed?

So, what's going on here then? Only just started happening, haven't updated or anything like that. I'm running my site through detectify which required me to add a meta tag. But I've removed it and it doesn't seem to have made a difference.

@a_5mith Ok, so turns out it was Detectify crashing NodeBB testing different URL values. I've stopped it and all seems better.

Looks like the decodeURIComponent on this line can crash with certain URLs. Probably happens when the URL has a % in it or its just %. More info.

Added an error check for that function. https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/commit/5696ea239633151d5adb6fade0dfa8b2d7805d7e

Good stuff, cheers Baris, I will have another run at it with that commit at some point, see what caused it, the URLs did have % in them. So it was likely that. Have an upvote.
