Description
I have encountered a bug in ngx_http_image_filter_module when used in conjunction with ngx_http_proxy_module ; the configuration is as following:
location /img/ {
proxy_pass http://mybucket.s3.amazonaws.com;
image_filter resize 150 100;
}
The steps to reproduce are rather complicated as they depend on how TCP fragments the response coming from the proxy:
- If http://mybucket.s3.amazonaws.com returns, in the first TCP packet, a sizable amount of data (1-2k), the image is resized correctly.
- If http://mybucket.s3.amazonaws.com returns, in the first TCP packet, a small amount of data (HTTP header, or HTTP header + a few bytes), the content is marked as not an image and NGX_HTTP_UNSUPPORTED_MEDIA_TYPE is returned (disconnecting the client), irrespective on whether or not subsequent data would complete the response to a valid image.
Nginx appears to give up right away on waiting for data if the contents of the first TCP packet received from the proxy does not contain a valid image header- i.e. ngx_http_image_test() will return NGX_HTTP_IMAGE_SIZE, etc.
In my experience this was triggered by a subtle change in AWS S3 that introduced further fragmentation of the TCP responses.
Versions affected: 1.6.2, 1.6.3, 1.7.2, 1.8.0, etc. (all?)
Attaching a 1.8.0 patch that resolves it; the other versions can be fixed similarly.
I think a better fix would be to "return NGX_OK" if we do not have enough data in "case NGX_HTTP_IMAGE_START", and "return NGX_HTTP_UNSUPPORTED_MEDIA_TYPE" (as per the original code) if enough data has been read, but it’s really not an image- but this exceeds the scope of the fix and my use case.
