Package: request-tracker3.6
Version: 3.6.1-4
Severity: normal
Tags: patch fixed-upstream
RT 3.6.1 decodes RFC 2047 MIME headers incorrectly when there are encoded
words mixed with unencoded equals ('=') signs in the same string. This
affects parsing of incoming emails, including their Subject lines, and
may result in a failure to extract the ticket number from the Subject
line of a ticket reply.
An example RFC 2047 encoded header is
X-MyHeader: key="plain"; key="=?iso-8859-1?Q?encoded?="
Feeding this to the following one-liner:
% perl -Ilib -MRT::I18N -lne 'print RT::I18N::DecodeMIMEWordsToEncoding($_,
"utf8")'
gives just
"encoded"
ie. everything before the encoded part is lost.
The attached patch was applied to upstream SVN branch 3.4-RELEASE as
revision 5822 (released in 3.4.6) and merged into branch 3.6-RELEASE
in revision 6039 (released in 3.6.2).
With the patch the above example decoder returns
X-MyHeader: key="plain"; key="encoded"
as expected.
I'll clone a separate bug to document this for the Etch 3.4 users too.
Cheers,
