Hi everybody,
I recently wrote an extension to Apache2::AuthenNTLM in order to store
the NTLM authentified username in a cookie (module
http://search.cpan.org/dist/Apache2-AuthenNTLM-Cookie/).
Now I found out that this module has a critical bug : the content of
POST requests gets corrupted (bug
http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=36847).
I don't really know where to start to fix the bug. My hypothesis is that
perhaps this is because I'm using Apache2::Cookie, which itself uses
libaprequest, and maybe these modules are not meant to be used in an
early Apache phase, and leave the input stream in an buggy state. I
looked at a couple of other authentication modules using cookies, but
they don't seem to use the Apache2::Cookie API.
Is that the hypothesis correct ? Does anybody have good advice on that
problem ?
Thanks in advance,
Laurent Dami
