Bug #26548 Malformed HTTP dates in headers
Submitted: 2003-12-07 09:04 UTC Modified: 2003-12-07 09:26 UTC
From: phpnet at shredzone dot de Assigned: derick (profile)
Status: Closed Package: Output Control
PHP Version: 4.3.3 OS: Linux
Private report: No CVE-ID: None
 [2003-12-07 09:04 UTC] phpnet at shredzone dot de
Description:
------------
If PHP generates headers containing a date, some of these dates are not RFC 2616 (Sect. 3.3.1) / RFC 1123 compliant.

The RFCs require the day, hour, minute and second to have 2 digits (i.e. having leading zeros). PHP misses the leading zero for the day, though.

Note that due to the nature of the bug, it is only reproducable in the first 9 days of a month. :)


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
  session_cache_limiter('public');
  set_time_limit(600);
  session_start();
?>
<html><body>foo</body></html>


Expected result:
----------------
