Thanks.

Since this filter uses parse_url() internally, I suggest the easiest
fix would be to make parse_url() return FALSE here.

Note that parse_url() already does some validation of the port number:

   parse_url('http://example.com:12345');  // OK
   parse_url('http://example.com:123456'); // FALSE
