Hello Robert,
This does indeed look like an issue in the test. I've filed
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8347000 to address this. Thank you
for bringing it up here.

Hi,
The jdk test B6361557 here
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk23u/blob/9101cc14972ce6bdeb966e67bcacc8b693c37d0a/test/jdk/com/sun/net/httpserver/bugs/B6361557.java#L68
sends an invalid http request according to the specification here
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc2616#section-4.4
specifically "When a Content-Length is given in a message where a message-body
is
allowed, its field value MUST exactly match the number of OCTETs in
the message-body. HTTP/1.1 user agents MUST notify the user when an
invalid length is received and detected."
The code in this test case sends a request with Content-length set to 0, but
due to a bug, it sends extra octets after the request header (14 zero to be
exact).
The cause is that the buffer is allocated to 64, and filled with a string that
is shorter, but the entire buffer is sent.
This is fixed by changing line 68 to
final static ByteBuffer requestBuf = ByteBuffer.wrap(request.getBytes());
It currently passes, only because the server is not fully implementing the http
specification.
