Python regular expression not raising exception inside header.py












1















my client looks like this->



from email.mime.multipart import MIMEMultipart
b = MIMEMultipart()
b['a'] = "Hello"
b['b'] = "--nhttp://www.stallergenes.com/images/STAL_mail.png"
b.as_string()


This calls a function _write_headers in generator.py



This generator.py calls encode method in header.py



encode function inside header.py looks like this ->



def encode(self, splitchars=';, t', maxlinelen=None, linesep='n'):
_embedded_header = re.compile(r'n[^ t]+:')
print 'value in header.py is -> %s, %s, %s' %(value, type(value), _embeded_header.pattern, _embeded_header.search(value))
if _embedded_header.search(value):
raise HeaderParseError("header value appears to contain "
"an embedded header: {!r}".format(value))
return value


In python2.7, this is my header.py file inside docker container.



Value of print statement in header.py-> --nhttp://www.stallergenes.com/images/STAL_mail.png, n[^ t]+:, None



So Basically, it should have been matched. why it is not getting matched against this regex?

  • If the output of print is --nhttp://www.stallergenes.com/images/STAL_mail.png, then you do not have a line break in the value. Otherwise, 'n' would be displayed as a line break. Apparently your 'n' is actually a '\n'.

  • But why it is not breaking? it is also working fine for inputs like "Cecilia Alarcon 12:01 PM:n(y):D", "Failed monitors include:nFreeWheel: 2018-03-25", "Anoka Stake Centern6:30 & 7:30pmCT"

n matches a new line. I don't think that this was your purpose. If you escape it by adding a it should work-
