Comment (by regan.khadgi):

 Hello there,

 I just debugged a bit more and it seems there is some issue with $_GET and
 $_POST. When I inspected in the comment edit form there is a input type
 hidden field with name as c which shall be addressed as
 {{{
 $_POST['c']
 }}}
  on the receiving end but when I checked in the comment.php file in exact
 line number then it is being addressed as

 {{{
 $_GET['c']
 }}}

 without checking isset or empty condition.

 Please check these screenshot.

 So probable solution might be using $_REQUEST instead of $_GET or $_POST
 as since same screen is being used to submit and display the comment edit
 form.
