Status: Closed Package: HTTP related
PHP Version: 5.3.10 OS: linux
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
Line 445 of http_fopen_wrapper.c
only works of the content-type is at the end of a list of header fields in the 
context. It fails if it is in the middle, or the beginning.

memmove(tmp, tmp + (s2 + 1 - tmp_c), tmp_c + l - 1 - s2);

To see the problem watch the HTTP stream in something like WireShark.


Test script:
---------------
<?php
$http = array(
   'header' =>
      null
      ."AnyHeader: 1\r\n"
      // BUG on line 445 of http_fopen_wrapper.c of PHP: content_type cannot be in the middle of headers.
      ."Content-type: anythingyouwanthere\r\n"
      ."SomeOtherHeader: 2\r\n"
);
/*
PHP incorrectly sends across when following the "Location":
GET /services/storm/lead HTTP/1.0
Host: storm
SomeOtherHeader: 2ent-type: anythingyouwanthere
SomeOtherHeader: 2
 */
$http['method'] = 'POST';
$options = array('http' => $http);
$context = stream_context_create($options);
$result = file_get_contents('http://some/url/that/resturns/201/and/has/a/Location/in/the/header', false, $context);


Expected result:
----------------
GET /services/storm/lead HTTP/1.0
Host: storm
AnyHeader: 1
SomeOtherHeader: 2

Actual result:
--------------
GET /services/storm/lead HTTP/1.0
Host: storm
SomeOtherHeader: 2ent-type: anythingyouwanthere
SomeOtherHeader: 2
