#19263 [NEW]: huge POST data corrupt

From: erwin@isiz.com Operating system: Solaris 8 PHP version: 4CVS-2002-09-06 PHP Bug Type: Apache2 related Bug description: huge POST data corrupt Hi, I've gave this the summary "huge POST data", because I've found two bugs, which are, in my opinion, related. The first one: If I upload a file using the file upload example from the php website, all I get are corrupted files. The resulting files are about two times bigger then the input files. The amount of bytes on the output varies a little bit. This does not happens with files of 10 Kb, but different files which vary from 60-120 Kb got corrupted. The second one: If I post text in a textarea, nothing goes wrong. But if I post a lot of text in a textarea, parts of the text is copied into the text itself. For instance, I copied the source of http://www.php.net (normal HTML source) in a textarea. Posted the data to info.php (this script only has the phpinfo() function, so I can see all data). The sourcecode of the php website is 376 lines long. The result is about 734 lines. This is around twice as big (The site looks really weird ;-)) Again, I think these two are related. They only occured in conjunction with Apache 2.0.40 (didn't test other Apache 2 releases). I'm sure that the bug is a PHP bug, because Perl code doesn't have this problem (but I rather use PHP) I did test it with php-4.2.2, which gave me the same results.
