Brian O'Berry commented on BIT-1235:
------------------------------------
We've run this through our QA process and it's been running on our network for almost a week without issue. From our standpoint, it's ready for merge. Can we help with anything else?
Thank you!

> Project: Bro Issue Tracker
> Issue Type: Problem
> Components: Bro
> Affects Versions: 2.3
> Environment: CentOS 6.5, file extract analyzer
> Reporter: Brian O'Berry
> Fix For: 2.4

> Attachments: bro-2.3-HTTP.patch, gdb.log, upload-api-http.pcap

> HTTP POST multipart processing converts bare CR or LF chars to CRLF pairs, corrupting most files when extracted with Files::ANALYZER_EXTRACT. This is clear in the attached gdb.log, which has a backtrace that shows a buffer with the start of a PDF file entering MIME/HTTP entity processing at frame 25, and emerging with LF chars converted to CRLF at frame 6.
> Also attached are the pcap file associated with the backtrace, and an initial patch that we've barely begun to test. A point of concern with the patch is that it changes a weird.log entry from "line_terminated_with_single_CR" to "http_no_crlf_in_header_list". It does enable Files::ANALYZER_EXTRACT to correctly extract the PDF file from the attached pcap.
> Please let me know if we can provide anything else to help with this.
