PHP version: 4.4.2
PHP Bug Type: URL related
Bug description: urlencode wrongly decodes %00-chars
Description:
------------
PHP-version: 4.3.11 (linux), and 4.4.0 (windows)
I don't know if this bug is reproducible on any higher version of PHP as I
don't have them to work on.
If you submit a POST/GET/parse_str() to a webpage, where a variable has an
URLencoded string in it, which contains %00. It will end up being mangled
totally.
Just check the reproduce-code, it'll be more clear then my explanation
here.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$comp_me = gzcompress('Compress me', 9);
parse_str( 'var='. urlencode( $comp_me ) );
var_dump( urlencode($var) );
var_dump( urlencode( $comp_me ) );
Expected result:
----------------
I would expect to see 2 urlencoded strings, EXACTLY the same.
Actual result:
--------------
string(42) "x%DAs%CE%CF-%28J-.V%C8M%05%5C0%19%BD%04%3F"
string(41) "x%DAs%CE%CF-%28J-.V%C8M%05%00%19%BD%04%3F"
---------------------------------------^^^
