Deflate fails on server response without zlib header

[Semptic]

Describe the bug

Some servers are not sending a zlib header in their deflated data. CURL had the same problem and implemented a "fix" for it: https://github.com/curl/curl/blob/5c932f8fe9dad94a7417702958ffa9e8db67c549/lib/content_encoding.c#L227-L229

Axios is also returning a Z_DATA_ERROR in this case.

To Reproduce

Use axios to request a page without a zlib header in the deflated data (e.g. https://www.konicaminolta.eu/eu-en/about-us/corporate-book) and force it to only accept deflate encoding.

let url = 'https://www.konicaminolta.eu/eu-en/about-us/corporate-book';
let config = {
  headers: { 'Accept-Encoding': 'deflate' }
};

await axios.get(url, config);

Expected behavior

Getting the correctly inflated data.

Environment

• Axios Version [0.21.1]

Hi 👋

Please could you retry with the latest version and open a new issue should this error still be relevant?

Thanks
