Description: ------------ If the input data has an inner boundary that contains a subset of the outer boundary the _boundarySplit function will incorrectly parse the data. For example: Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="abc" --abc Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="abc_a" --abc_a inner --abc_a-- outer --abc-- ...will return 'abc_a' as being at the same level as 'abc' and additionally create some garbage nodes. Test script: --------------- function _boundarySplit($input, $boundary) { - $tmp = explode('--' . $boundary, $input); + $tmp = preg_split("/--$boundary(\b|--)/", $input);

Changing PHP/OS version to Irrelevant. Also the 'test script' is actually the diff required to fix the problem. Ie, using preg_split instead of explode.
