PHP 4.0 Bug #9014: Content-Type included in uploaded files

From: sveinrn@hotmail.com Operating system: RedHat 7 PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: HTTP related Bug description: Content-Type included in uploaded files I am using RedHat 7 with all the latest bugfixes and security fixes ("up2date -u"). This weekend I updated to RedHat's latest PHP version, and now all files I upload is longer than they should have been and includes a line at the top that looks like "Content-Type: image/pjpeg" plus a blank line. Here is the shortest possible script ("upload.php3") to display the behaviour: <HTLM><BODY> <FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" ACTION="upload.php3" METHOD=POST> <INPUT TYPE="hidden" name="MAX_FILE_SIZE" value="100000"> Send this file: <INPUT NAME="userfile" TYPE="file"> <INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Send File"> </FORM> <? echo "\$userfile=".$userfile."<br>"; echo "\$userfile_name=".$userfile_name."<br>"; echo "\$userfile_size=".$userfile_size."<br>"; echo "\$userfile_type=".$userfile_type."<br>"; echo "is_uploaded_file=".is_uploaded_file($userfile)."<br>"; copy($userfile, "testfile"); ?> </BODY></HTML> Here is the output produced for a sample jpeg of 41052 bytes: $userfile=/tmp/phpHaOmjN $userfile_name=J0144216.JPG $userfile_size=41081 $userfile_type= is_uploaded_file=1 As you can see, the file is 29 bytes longer than it should be... Here is what I get when pressing the "send file" button without specifying a filename: $userfile=/tmp/phpJryFlz $userfile_name= $userfile_size=42 $userfile_type= is_uploaded_file=1 The file "uploaded" looks like this: *** cut here *** Content-Type: application/octet-stream *** cut here *** It seems to me that the content type description is ending up in the uploaded file rather than in the _type variable? I have changed my config files as little as possible, and I can't imagine I have been able to do something this stupid all on my own?
