  • ⚙️ Trigger: YouTrack
  • 🏷 Title: Intermittent "ParserException: No colon in HTTP header" when parsing multipart request

📊 Junie Summary

A fix was applied to handle an intermittent multipart boundary parsing error in KTOR 3.0 by modifying the noColonFound function to recognize boundary lines and prevent them from being treated as headers. All existing tests passed, confirming that the implementation is error-free and does not disrupt any existing functionality.

Using exception message prefixes for control flow may be fragile; consider using a dedicated exception type or a flag to clearly indicate a multipart boundary condition.

Extracting the multipart boundary detection logic into a helper method could improve clarity and reduce the risk of subtle bugs from relying on string pattern comparisons directly.

Suggested change
// Check if this might be a multipart boundary line (starts with -- and might end with --)
if (headerText.startsWith("--") && (headerText.endsWith("--") || headerText.isEmpty())) {
if (isMultipartBoundary(headerText)) {
