Description (last modified by Christopher Brix)

The middleware AuthenticationMiddleware apparently accesses request.POST, because if I include it I get the exception You cannot access body after reading from request's data stream once I try to read request.body.
Everything works fine if I remove it from the list of middlewares.

I wasn't able to find the source code of AuthenticationMiddleware, but if it indeed does so, this should be considered a bug.

I'm running Python 2 and the latest version of Django.

I don't believe it does. Here's the source: https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/contrib/auth/middleware.py

Please include complete steps to reproduce the issue when reporting a bug. Thanks.
