Seems the file keeps adding 0x0D to my saved binary files no matter what setting I put in the fopen mode flag.
It's not only affecting fopen/fwrite.. but also file_put_contents.
file_get_contents I thought was the problem to begin with.. but it turns out this one is actually working okay.. because when I dumped the file using bin2hex() it came out good.
I was blaming at first the std::string in C++ for this bug.. but it turns out it doesn't even have anything to do with C++ but it's in fact a bug with PHP or maybe with only CentOS linux and I have yet to find a solution to store my file in binary.. best I could do is hexstring dump file which works..
Look at my code and screenshots.
$target_file = "/privatefiles/" . basename($_FILES["a"]["name"]);
$fileTypeExtension = strtolower(pathinfo($target_file,PATHINFO_EXTENSION));
//Check file extension.
if($fileTypeExtension != "dll" && $fileTypeExtension != "exe" ) die("ER");
// Check file size
if ($_FILES["a"]["size"] > 10*(1024*1024)) //10 MB cap
die("ER");
//To decode a base64 encoded file (this was a quickfix to fix binary file encoding in C++ part).
$fileContent = file_get_contents($_FILES['a']['tmp_name']);
$fileContent = base64_decode($fileContent);
//fail
$fh = fopen("wtf1.bin", "wb");
fwrite($fh, $fileContent, strlen($fileContent));
fclose($fh);
//fail (exact result as top)
$fh = fopen("wtf2.bin", "wb");
$fileContent = bin2hex($fileContent);
for($i=0;$i<strlen($fileContent);$i+=2)
fwrite($fh, chr(hexdec(substr($fileContent,$i,2))));
fclose($fh);
//good result.. but not binary
$fh = fopen("wtf3.bin", "w");
$fileContent = bin2hex(base64_decode(file_get_contents($_FILES['a']['tmp_name'])));
fwrite($fh, $fileContent);
fclose($fh);
//good result but not binary
file_put_contents($target_file, $fileContent); //good bin2hex.
//fail same as the top 2 fail's.
file_put_contents($target_file."_", file_get_contents($_FILES['a']['tmp_name'])); //bad same as wtf1.bin or wtf2.bin
Here are my screenshots (proof of what is happening from running the code above), and initiating a file upload using C++ application (which cannot be bugged because at first I sent using raw binary mode.. then after this 0x0D 0x0A bug I changed it to base64 encoding to fix the transfer problem.. and it turns out that wasn't even the problem, but in fact a PHP problem I believe..
Here is the original binary file (not altered) this is what I upload (as you can see I stop at 0x0A 0x40 to show you the bug).
Here is wtf1.bin (Just a simple 1 liner of base64_decode to file) at same offset.
Here is wtf2.bin (Some hackery I tried to do to fix this problem using bin2hex which dumps it good) at same offset.
Here is wtf3.bin (bin2hex) which works good at same offset. (0x846 / 2 = 0x423) (same offset confirmed!)
Even this simple upload script, uploads corrupted files with 0xA,0xD

Bug happens when I just upload these bytes in binary format
