Description Magnus Holmgren 2015-10-08 11:42:24 UTC 
After upgrading to apache2 (with apache2-prefork) 2.4.6-6.50.1 yesterday, POSTs to some CGI programs started resulting in 500 errors. I could quickly conclude that said CGI programs were never executed; the error occurs before that.

error_log:
[Tue Oct 06 11:18:47.575409 2015] [cgi:error] [pid 28136] (70014)End of file found: [client xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:21980] AH01225: Error reading request entity data

The patch relating to Transfer-Encoding: chunked seems the most suspect, but these requests are not using that transfer-encoding.

This seems a bit similar to bug 949218, but the form data in this case is not multipart, but regular x-www-form-urlencoded, and, as mentioned, no code of ours is run; form data are not merely unavailable. The request entity data is rather largish; perhaps always more than 100 kB when the error occurs.

I realise I may have to come back with more data to help you reproduce the problem, but that's all I have for now.
