Summary0006316: Invalid URL/redirect leads to Sucuri "Access denied" page.
Description

On the page https://www.kali.org/kali-linux-features/, the redirect when clicking on "LUKS Full Disk Encryption" in the "Kali Linux Full Desk Encryption" item is invalid.

It generates an Access Denied page from the Sucuri WebSite Firewall.

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Visit https://www.kali.org/kali-linux-features/
  2. Go to the "Kali Linux Full Disk Encryption" section.
  3. Click on the link under "LUKS Full Disk Encryption"
Additional Information

The base URL is currently set to http://docs.kali.org/installation/kali-linux-encrypted-disk-install,which redirects to https://www.kali.org/docs//installation/kali-linux-encrypted-disk-install (note the double slashes after docs). The current base URL is from the old setup, where https://docs.kali.org was used.

The invalid redirect causes a Sucuri Website Firewall page to pop up with an Access Denied message.

If the double slash in the redirect is removed - the issue is resolved and the page loads properly.

This issue might happen on other places too where the same sort of redirect from https://docs.kali.org/ to https://kali.org/docs/ is used - I just spotted this one.

I see this is still a thing. Is anyone from the team willing to look into this? The fix is actually quite simple.

I'm closing this issue as it's based on the old kali website
