Alexander Shorin commented on COUCHDB-2202:
-------------------------------------------
[~screeneyes] There are certainly could be security problems, but while you
keep filters only for the related CouchDB traffic only your CouchDB user
credentials in the risk zone (in additional to transferred data). You can
upload the dump somewhere and share the link privately with me.
> Replication fails with net::ERR_INVALID_CHUNKED_ENCODING

> We're trying to replicate docs from a couchdb instance using a filter stored
> in couch. If we do not specify a filter, everything works as expected but
> when we specify a filter name, couch db responds with a truncated message
> causing Chrome to show the following message in the console:
> {{GET
> http://hostname:5984/ourdbname/_changes?style=all_docs&feed=longpoll…fromDate=2014-03-10T23:00:00.000Z&since=0&limit=25&_nonce=8PCzVQzOyrrhy1VB
> net::ERR_INVALID_CHUNKED_ENCODING}}
> Here's the full URL for the request:
> {{http://hostname:5984/ourdbname/_changes?style=all_docs&feed=longpoll&filter=replication/filter&since=0&limit=25&_nonce=7NIrlLVhSxjf1FvY}}
> We were initially doing this via PouchDB's API, but testing the URL above
> directly in the browser gives the same result.
> We also tested in Firefox, which does not show the error message about
> chunked encoding, but gives a truncated JSON response (only part of a JSON
> doc is shown).
> Tested with:
> * CouchDb 1.4.0 (Ubuntu)
> * CouchDb 1.5.0 (Windows)
