Yes, it appeared to us that "ap_get_client_block" is susceptible to short reads -- it indeed reads a BLOCK until the end of the current IP datagram but no further. The problem was discovered when we implemented our Web site with relatively large user submissions (by POST) using the current version of mod_python. The exact cause of the problem was identified with the help of "tcpdump". Sincerely, L.A.Timochouk
