Public bug reported: This effects trusty, xenial and current httpd trunk.
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60330 As a reverse proxy, a 100 continue response is sent prematurely when a request contains expects: 100-continue. This causes the requesting client to send a body. The apache httpd proxy will then read the body and attempt to send it to the backend, but the backend already sent an error and should be allowed to NOT read the remaining request body, which never should have existed. When the backend does not read the request body mod_proxy_pass errors and returns a 500 error to the client. The client never receives the correct error message. ** Affects: apache2 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: apache2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Bug watch added: bz.apache.org/bugzilla/ #60330 https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60330 ** Also affects: apache2 via https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=60330 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1641238 Title: as a reverse proxy, a 100 continue response is sent prematurely when a request contains expects: 100-continue To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/apache2/+bug/1641238/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
