See below.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a PHP script like this: <?php print_r($_FILES); ?><form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="index.php" method="post"><input type="file" name="pdfname">
2. Upload a PDF file with name Loesung.pdf (probably irrelevant)
3. Use tcpdump if you want to see that firefox is actually sending this and it’s not a server-side problem.
