There seem to be a hard limit via the main website interface but I have not check modifying the post or using another means { raw, API, Facebook App, etc}. "Status updates must be less than 63,206 characters. You have entered 73,979 characters here. Notes can be much longer. Would you like to edit and post your update as a Note instead?"

The last time I reported a security flaw to facebook, it took around 6 weeks until they replied, telling me that there was no flaw at all. Perhaps that's why I decided to make public any flaw on facebook from now on.[cut some technical details for readability](Properly replace the <EXTREMLY LONG MESSAGE HERE> before testing) This might not be the best vulnerability description ever, but I hope it helps solving the condition as soon as possible. Have fun.What length of EXTREMELY LONG MESSAGE were you using in testing? 1K bytes, 1M, 1G?I couldn't tell, I started up with 1,000 chars and increased 1,000 by 1,000 until 100,000 with parallel connections. But certainly, even if you only full the text input using the regular UI from facebook, you'll crash any regular box, or tablet. Perhaps you should try with 1 Gb tho and see what happens, there's test users you can create from the facebook.com/whitehat. -- Success, *forward, quick.* Chris C.
