Description

For some reason, Nginx returns a 400 Bad Request when an Opera user attepts to POST data over SPDY.

To reproduce:

Visit https://secure.indieroyale.com/cart
Click on Star
Click pay with PayPal
Enter Email
Click Purchase.

400 Bad Request is returned.

Error_log shows this:

2013/04/23 03:47:24 [info] 9490#0: *72100667 client sent invalid "Content-Length" header while processing SPDY, client: X.X.X.X, server: www.indieroyale.com, request: "POST /cart/confirm HTTP/1.1", host: "secure.indieroyale.com", referrer: "https://secure.indieroyale.com/cart"

Any ideas ?

Thought i'd confirm that Chrome, Firefox & IE work fine.

Hi,

Are there any updates on this? Otherwise we will have to turn SPDY off completely as it is not working for anyone on Opera.

Summary: SPDYOpera sends an invalid "Content-Length" header over SPDY in some cases

It looks like, that you have stumbled over a bug in Opera. I cannot reproduce it on my local test environment using a simple POST form, it seems JS on your page is involved somehow, but I've investigated what happens on the wire with your site.

Here is a TLS connection dump of decrypted data using the MITM technique:

That is what Opera sends to the server over a newly established TLS connection right after the "Purchase" button has been pushed. It contains the SYN_STREAM spdy frame with a block of compressed headers. If we extract, and then decompress this block, we will see this:

You can see that it contains the content-length header with 234, 234 value. It is invalid and looks like two content-length headers have been concatenated in one.

You can also observe it simply by enabling nginx debug log, or by using Opera dragonfly:
Opera bug with the Content-Length header

I close the ticket since it is not related to nginx. You should report about this issue to Opera team.
