base64 module documentation for b64decode function says, "TypeError is raised if s were incorrectly padded or if there are non-alphabet characters present in the string." But this doesn't seem to be the case. Testcase: import base64 base64.b64decode('%') Since % is a non-alphabet character, this should raise TypeError (btw, shouldn't this be ValueError instead?), but Python 2.4.3 silently ignores.
Please submit a bug report on SourceForge and report back the ID.
