#35642 [NEW]: POST var corrupted when single variable posted

From: ray at wirestorm dot net Operating system: Debian Linux PHP version: 5.1.1 PHP Bug Type: Apache2 related Bug description: POST var corrupted when single variable posted Description: ------------ Apache2 Filter + PHP 5.1.1 When posting a SINGLE post var, the post var appears corrupted, (the raw post data, it seems, is appended to the end of the value). When posting multiple post vars, the problem does not appear. here is my config settings: './configure' '--with-xml' '--with-layout=GNU' '--with-config-file-path=/etc/php5' '--with-config-file-scan-path=/etc/php5' '--with-sockets' '--with-mbstring' '--enable-exif' '--enable-xslti' '--prefix=/usr' '--with-xsl' '--with-dom' '--with-mysql=/usr/local' '--with-zlib' '--with-bzip' '--with-gd' '--enable-shared-pdflib' '--with-gettext' '--enable-mailparse' '--with-curl=/usr' '--enable-exif' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib/' '--with-png-dir=/usr/lib/' '--with-ttf=/usr/lib/libttf.so' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--with-xpm-dir=/usr/' '--enable-apc' '--enable-apd' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-mhash' '--enable-soap' '--with-apxs2filter=/usr/bin/apxs2' And a test script is here: http://n0de.net/php-test/ Additionally, a simple perl script doing the same thing produces the CORRECT result (ie, no post var corruption). Reproduce code: --------------- <? var_dump($_POST); ?> <form action='.' method='post'> <textarea name='cmd'></textarea> <input type='submit' /> </form> Expected result: ---------------- array(1) { ["cmd"]=> string(16) "sdfsdf" } Actual result: -------------- array(1) { ["cmd"]=> string(16) "sdfsdfcmd=sdfsdf" } -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=35642&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.1): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=trysnapshot51 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=35642&r=mysqlcfg
