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
