If we upload a file with a semi-colon (i.e : "C:/my;file.jpg") :
cgi.FieldStorage.filename returns only "my" everything after the semi-
colon is missing
Is it a bug or i'm missing something ?
I doubt it's bug inparse_header, since it's meant to split on
semicolons. Whether it's a bug in one of its callers, or the client
not escaping sufficiently, I couldn't say offhand.
I've printed the filename in the content-disposition header :
filename="my;file.jpg"
If you look at the
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2183.txt about "content-
disposition" :
"A short parameter value containing only ASCII characters, but
including `tspecials' characters, SHOULD be represented as `quoted-
string'."
So my header is correct but i think there is clearly a bug in the
parse_header and "content-disposition" should not be "splitted" only
with the split(';') method but should look at quoted-string too.
