Warsaw (bwarsaw) Summary: email parser incorrectly breaks headers with a CRLF at 8192 Initial Comment: If a message has a CRLF as part of a header that starts at 8191, the parser will incorrectly consider the headers to finish at 8191 and the body to start at 8193, which leaves headers in the body of the message. This problem occurs because the parser reads 8192 characters at a time. If 8192 is a '\r' and 8193 a '\n', then when the second block is parsed, it will appear to be a blank line (i.e. header separator). The simplest fix for this is to just read an extra character if the last one read is a '\r'. This appears to work fine without breaking anything, although I suppose that an alternative would be to change the FeedParser to check whether the '\n' belonged with the previous data. A patch and test are attached, against SVN of 10/Sept/06. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1555570&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
