Corrupted file attachments | WordPress.org

Hello,

I’ve encountered the error with corrupted file attachments that was already discussed, although the plugin has been patched with the solution many versions ago.

Once I omit the if (ob_get_level()) and go straight to ob_end_clean(), all files uploaded are fine.
Could you please advise if this workaround is insecure or may cause harm in any way?

Kind Regards

That should not cause any problem (security or otherwise).

Let me now if this works:
```
while (ob_get_length()) {
            ob_end_clean();
}
```

Thanks for the response!

I tested the code, it doesn’t work.

Strange. And this does?
```
if (ob_get_level()) {
        ob_end_clean(); // Fix bug where download files can be corrupted
}
ob_end_clean();
```

Yes. That’s the exact code currently, and it works fine.

Ok. I think I’ll add that to the next update.

Thanks for testing.
