| Summary | 0003240: File massadd: Saving too many file templates breaks the website completely until the related cookie is cleared | ||||
| Description | The file massadd view allows the user to save the release settings into templates, which can then be reused later. However, they are saved into a cookie, and it seems that it is very easy to make the cookie large enough that the web server _refuses to serve any pages anymore_ until you manually clear that cookie. Once you have enough of them, trying to load any page just sends back a 400: "Bad Request Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand. Size of a request header field exceeds server limit. Apache/2.4.25 (Debian) Server at anidb.info Port 443" Optimally, the templates would be saved server-side anyway, allowing one to use them on multiple browsers, but for as long as they are client-side, a fix (use LocalStorage instead of cookies? the server probably doesn't care about the cookie) and/or a safeguard to not save too many would be quite appreciated | ||||
| Additional Information | I don't think having as many templates as in the attached image is even close to what could be thought as excessive, but that is already enough to break it. | ||||
