Description

[Matthew Beermann]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 6.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506; Tablet PC 2.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; InfoPath.2; MS-RTC LM 8)
Build Identifier: Bugzilla 3.2

In a nutshell, after upgrading to Bugzilla 3.2, I am experiencing exactly the problem described in this newsgroup thread: http://groups.google.com/group/mozilla.support.bugzilla/browse_thread/thread/dc89c705cae3b87e

It is suggested there that this might be a regression caused by bug 363153, but I couldn't find any additional information about that, or a suggested workaround.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Upload an binary file, such as a PNG, to a bug
2. Click on the attachment to view it
3.
Actual Results:  
You'll get a "broken" image marker, meaning the image is corrupted. Diffing the original with the attached version in a hex editor, I see lots of superfluous 0xC2 and 0xC3 characters mixed in with the correct data.

Expected Results:  
See the same image you originally attached.
