Requests with integer header keys and string values cause InvalidArgumentExceptions

[aedelstein]

• I was not able to find an open or closed issue matching what I'm seeing.
• This is not a question. (Questions should be asked on chat (Signup here) or our forums.)

If a user sends a GET request to an endpoint which is run on zend-http and if that GET request has a header key:value pair of the form $integer:$string, (e.g., 2:blah), this will cause the endpoint to throw an InvalidArgumentException.

This appears to be similar to #116 and zendframework/zend-mvc#226 but not quite the same.

Code to reproduce the issue

I don't have a specific code snippet to reproduce this (it affects our entire application) but this seems to be happening because, in zend-http/src/Headers.php, addHeaders() can call addHeaderLine() without a second argument if it sees a header with an integer key:

    public function addHeaders($headers)
    {
        if (! is_array($headers) && ! $headers instanceof Traversable) {
            throw new Exception\InvalidArgumentException(sprintf(
                'Expected array or Traversable; received "%s"',
                (is_object($headers) ? get_class($headers) : gettype($headers))
            ));
        }

        foreach ($headers as $name => $value) {
            if (is_int($name)) {
                if (is_string($value)) {
                    $this->addHeaderLine($value);

Expected results

I'm not sure. Perhaps the header should be ignored? Or that addHeaderLine() should look like $this->addHeaderLine((string)$name, $value);?

Actual results
