> please describe in detail what should be done
Sure! I'm not sure what would be too much, and what would be too little
explanation.
The short version is to run the following code,
#+begin_src elisp
(require 'mm-url)
(let ((data '(("file"
("filedata" . "file content\n")
("name" . "file")
("filename" . "filename"))))
(boundary "BOUNDARY"))
(mm-url-encode-multipart-form-data data boundary))
#+end_src
#+RESULTS:
: --BOUNDARY^M
: Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="filename"^M
: Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary^M
: Content-Type: text/plain^M
: ^M
: file content
: --BOUNDARY--^M
(I've replaced carriage returns with literal '^' and 'M' to avoid email
mangling)
and observe the absence of CRLF between the file content and the boundary.
From
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc2046#section-5.1.1 this description,
it seems like there should be.
Here's a longer set of steps.
0. run http server
#+begin_src bash
git clone
https://git.sr.ht/~ozzloy/emacs-bug-63941 cd emacs-bug-63941
git checkout reproduce-bug-63941
./server.py
#+end_src
1. Then use EWW to browse to localhost:8085 and upload the file =filename=.
Here's my result when doing that, first with EWW.
#+begin_quote
upload_content = b'file content', name = 'filename', size = 12
127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jun/2023 18:55:03] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 -
#+end_quote
The bug is that the file content no longer has the final "\n".
2. To confirm, in a separate shell, I posted using curl.
#+begin_src bash
curl -F "file=@filename;filename=filename" localhost:8085
#+end_src
Here's the output I got
#+begin_quote
upload_content = b'file content\n', name = 'filename', size = 13
127.0.0.1 - - [07/Jun/2023 18:57:12] "POST / HTTP/1.1" 200 -
#+end_quote
The file's content ends with "\n", which is the expected behavior.
This is the second HTTP file upload server I have used and seen this
behavior. The same thing happened for one I wrote in clojure using
Aleph. That one is here
https://git.sr.ht/~ozzloy/fupload but I made the
python one because it's probably less set up for other people to
reproduce it.
