[Python-modules-team] Bug#622730: libapache2-mod-wsgi: [PATCH] support setting a >2GB Content-Length header

[Nicolas Noirbent]

Package: libapache2-mod-wsgi
Version: 3.3-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hello,

When a WSGI application sets a Content-Length header to a value
greater than 2GB, mod_wsgi errors out with the following line in error.log:

[Thu Apr 14 09:08:02 2011] [error] [client 192.168.0.16] ValueError: invalid content length

This is due to the use of strtol() instead of strtoll() when
extracting the Content-Length from the headers provided by the WSGI
application.

I'm attaching a patch that fixes the issue by using strtoll() and an
apr_off_t instead.

Regards,
