You can do this with LimitRequestBody as long as no SSL renegotiation is needed
for your request (e.g. due to SSLrequire used in a Directory / Location context)
and even then you can use LimitRequestBody to limit what is being sent to your
application (cgi script, whatever). If the request body is larger than what you
set via LimitRequestBody but smaller than 128k, mod_ssl will consume the whole
body and the error checking for LimitRequestBody will bail out later. If the
request body is larger than 128k then mod_ssl will bail out regardless what is
set for LimitRequestBody. As said this is only true in the case that a SSL
renegotiation is needed. So the only limit that remains is that you cannot have
request bodies larger than 128k if an SSL renegotiation is needed for your
request and this is what is left from the original PR12355. Before the patch for
PR12355 was applied no request body at all was possible with such renegotiated
requests and now it can be up to 128k. Nevertheless many people complained
afterwards that this size is not configurable and that 128k is not enough for
their application. Please see PR12355 for further details. As far as I remember
there were some proposals how to avoid renegotiation in such cases.
To cut a long story short:
If your request needs SSL renegotiation, then you are affected from what is left
of PR12355 and if not it is highly likely that it is a misconfiguration on your
side since the LimitRequestBody check in the HTTP_INPUT filter knows nothing
about SSL. In this case please try using exactly the same configuration for SSL
and non SSL and post both (SSL/non SSL) configurations here if it still does not
work.
