Worked on WebPlatformForEmbedded/WPEWebKit over a two-month period, focusing on critical bug fixes to improve reliability in embedded web environments. Addressed a complex URL parsing issue by updating C++ logic to correctly extract hostnames when multiple '@' symbols are present, ensuring accurate host resolution and reducing parsing errors. Enhanced test coverage with targeted unit and integration tests for these scenarios. In a separate effort, improved deserialization safety by introducing a recursion depth guard in the serialization process, using C++ and WebAssembly. This change ensured proper error handling and state integrity, aligning the codebase with upstream WebKit standards and expectations.
