Sangjin Lee updated GERONIMO-3860:
----------------------------------

    Priority: Minor  (was: Major)

I think it is a minor issue mostly because folded headers are not very common 
in HTTP.  However, this needs to be fixed.

> HttpResponseDecoder does not handle folded headers properly

> HttpResponseDecoder makes an assumption that headers complete in a single 
> line ended by CRLF.  The HTTP RFC (along with RFC 822) permits a single 
> header spanning multiple lines.  Such folding can be detected by detecting 
> the leading LWSP char (either a space or a horizontal tab).
> HttpResponseDecoder needs to handle this properly.  Currently it throws a 
> ProtocolDecoderException (StringIndexOutOfBoundsException underneath).
