Bug ID: 58194 Summary: Screenshots upload broken due to Cloudflare challenge page Product: WineHQ Apps Database Version: unspecified Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: appdb-unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: tomman@gmail.com Distribution: ---
I'm trying to upload some screenshots for apps I maintain, when I got challenged by Cloudflare out of the blue (and as we recall, they have a strong dislike for web browsers like mine, SeaMonkey). Even after I manage to pass the challenge, I get a error page telling me I didn't specified the Wine version for the screenshot, but it's quite obvious what's happening here: the CF challenge is getting in the way, eating the POST'd form data (including the screenshot itself!), and after getting past the challenge, screenshots.php receives no data at all, so it errors out with the first missing piece of information it can find, I guess.
This is a very weird place to put a challenge, since it effectively breaks the workflow, and furthermore, I noticed WineHQ is migrating away from Cloudflare challenges to Anubis (which is more tolerant with non-mainstream browsers), but somehow this one slipped down the cracks.
