[jira] Created: (WW-3025) Parameters get lost when file upload over max size allowed

Parameters get lost when file upload over max size allowed
----------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WW-3025
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/WW-3025
             Project: Struts 2
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core Interceptors
    Affects Versions: 2.1.6
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Tom Nguyen


When the uploaded file gets rejected because it's content, size, or because of a general problem an Exception is thrown by the MultiPartRequest class. Exceptions are: InvalidContentTypeException, UnknownSizeException, SizeLimitExceededException, and FileUploadException. This can lead to serious problems within the application because the other parameters from the upload form get lost. Happening in a profile page for example means that the user data is lost this can lead to a security Exception. In other case this usually just involves a OGNL-Exception. Meaning your field data like personal file name is lost. Workaround found in http://henning.kropponline.de/index.php/2009/01/18/struts2-fileuploadbase-exception/, but the the still keep uploading to server, not secured.

Wes Wannemacher updated WW-3025:
--------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 2.2.x
       Issue Type: Improvement  (was: Bug)

This sounds like a bit of refactoring would be required. Pushing off until 2.2.x
