Summary: Request body assumed absent if neither C-L not T-E
specified
Product: Apache httpd-2
Version: 2.2.6
Platform: Other
OS/Version: other
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Core
AssignedTo: bugs[at]httpd.apache.org
ReportedBy: bjoern[at]hoehrmann.de


Apache 2.2.6 seems to treat HTTP/1.1 requests can have a body but do not
specify a Content-Length or Transfer-Encoding as if it had Content-Length:0
specified. For example,

POST / HTTP/1.1
Host: example

DELETE ...

would be handled as two separate requests. This is incorrect, the server
cannot read the request in this case (unless it reads until the client
closes the connection, in which case Apache could not send a response) so it
should respond with 411 Length Required or 400 Bad Request and close the
connection. IIS seems to use 411 Length Required.
