 Hi @GamerZ, thanks for reporting this.  @peterigz seems to have reported
 the same issue in #39166.

 From the
 [https://github.com/WordPress/WordPress/blob/721cf281a35788edbb4c762d42e62a61c37372b5
 /wp-includes/rest-api/class-wp-rest-request.php#L648-L670 relevant code]
 it looks like this only happens if you send `Content-Type:
 application/json`.  Is it an option for either of you to omit this header
 from your requests?
