Bug #76204 [Dup->Opn]: Remove the partial support for the CONNECT method

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=76204&edit=1 ID: 76204 Updated by: requinix@php.net Reported by: sid dot pasquale at gmail dot com -Summary: CONNECT method doesn't work +Summary: Remove the partial support for the CONNECT method -Status: Duplicate +Status: Open Type: Bug Package: Built-in web server Operating System: linux PHP Version: 7.0.29 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Why... Yes, it's in there, but it's not actually supported. My guess is that the person who included CONNECT thought it was like every other verb. It isn't. A proper implementation of tunneling is beyond the scope of the built-in server. The partial support in there should be removed. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-04-10 16:26:02] sid dot pasquale at gmail dot com "CONNECT" was defined on line 85 of "php_http_parser.c": https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/PHP-7.0.13/sapi/cli/php_http_parser.c#L85 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-04-10 16:14:41] sid dot pasquale at gmail dot com So the expected result should be "501 Not Implemented". Furthermore "CONNECT" (like PATCH) seems to be implemented: https://github.com/php/php-src/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=PHP_HTTP_CONNECT&type= Working "PATCH" example: sid@zen:~$ echo -en "PATCH / HTTP/1.1\r\n\r\n" | nc localhost 8080 | head -n 1 HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-04-10 16:05:05] requinix@php.net CONNECT is not supported because the built-in server is a simple server for simple development uses. See request #72619. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-04-10 15:59:15] sid dot pasquale at gmail dot com Description: ------------ PHP HTTP built-in server doesn't support CONNECT HTTP method Test script: --------------- Starting built-in server: sid@zen:~$ php -S 127.0.0.1:8080 Test with some working HTTP methods: sid@zen:~$ echo -en "GET / HTTP/1.1\r\n\r\n" | nc localhost 8080 | head -n 1 HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found sid@zen:~$ echo -en "FOO / HTTP/1.1\r\n\r\n" | nc localhost 8080 | head -n 1 HTTP/1.1 501 Not Implemented Not working: sid@zen:~$ echo -en "CONNECT www.example.com:443 HTTP/1.1\r\n\r\n" | nc localhost 8080 | head -n 1 Actual result: -------------- [Tue Apr 10 17:51:27 2018] 127.0.0.1:44676 Invalid request (Malformed HTTP request) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=76204&edit=1
