Renamed email attachments lose extension

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      In 3.7.x, if an email is processed which has an attachment, and the attachment's filename contains invalid characters that can't be represented on the JIRA filesystem, then JIRA will renames the file:

      The problem here is that neither JIRA nor the user can now infer the type of the file. It could be a PDF, an image.. anything.

      Rather than rename the whole file, JIRA should break filenames into name + extension, and sanitize each individually. Typically this will result in the extension being unharmed, yielding filenames like renamedFile~1.pdf.
