Package: lynx
Version: 2.8.5-2
Severity: normal
When doing a file upload, lynx pastes the filename as-is, even if it
includes non-ASCII characters. However, RFC 1521 states that "in no
event are headers (either message headers or body-part headers) allowed
to contain anything other than ASCII characters."
RFC 1867 says that the filename "might be approximated or encoded using
the method of RFC 1522". It doesn't mandate any particular encoding,
though, so that makes it rather useless.
FWIW, all the other browsers out there (IE, Mozilla, Opera) don't bother
at all, and merely encode the filename the same way as the other fields.
("Standards? We don't need no stinkin' standards!")
