Issue 6234: cgi.FieldStorage is broken when given POST data
Right now, it seems impossible to use cgi.FieldStorage in 3.0 if you're
giving it environ['wsgi.input'] like so:
post_data = cgi.FieldStorage(
fp=environ["wsgi.input"],
environ=environ,
keep_blank_values=True
)
It gives the following error:
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.0/cgi.py", line 489, in __init__
self.read_urlencoded()
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.0/cgi.py", line 589, in read_urlencoded
self.strict_parsing):

pairs = [s2 for s1 in qs.split('&') for s2 in s1.split(';')]
