The collision box on the corner cobblestone wall block is a square, when it should be an "L" shape, preventing players from walking into an inside corner.

In the screenshot: When attempting to move forward, the player will just slide diagonally to the left or right.

That is because the corner fence's collision box is a solid rectangle instead of following the shape of the fence.

I noticed this recently in 1.4.4. I'm very certain it didn't exist until recently and as pointed out here, it doesn't exist with Iron Bars.
However, this also exists for Nether Brick Fence, Cobblestone Wall, and Mossy Cobblestone Wall. Seeing as Cobblestone wall recently had a bug fix regarding hit box (MC-1745), this was possibly caused by that issue being resolved.

this bug's been present ever since the fence collision boxes were updated in the beta. other types of fence positions got their hitboxes adjusted to their shapes, but this one was forgotten.
iron bars and glass panes are slightly different type of blocks than fences i think.

As far as I know it was fixed some time ago but now it reappeared again...

I can confirm this in 13w04a.

Confirmed in 13w05a.
(Should I keep posting this every week if it isn't resolved, or is there an easier way?)

The more of us that "up vote" the bug the better. Added my vote.

Same bug on Cobblestone wall

Confirmed to still exist with cobblestone walls. Updated.

All types of corner fences and walls still have incorrect hit boxes. This is one of the oldest ignored bugs in the game.

still in 1.5.

The corners of regular fences can be walked into.

Is this still a concern in the current Minecraft version 1.6.4 / Launcher version 1.2.5 ? If so, please update the affected versions in order to best aid Mojang ensuring bugs are still valid in the latest releases/pre-releases.

in 13w39a the player can walk into the inside of the corner, but still can't mine the block below the corner fence.

The mining is intentional. It is very difficult to give a block a hitbox that is not a rectangular prism.

still in 14w25 thru 26c

yeah. Its in 14w26c. The cobble walls is not correct.

Confirmed for 15w44b.

Affects 15w47c
Might look at this for 1.10 earliest. Major internal changes needed.

1.10 confirmed!
Can confirm.

Still happens as of 1.12-pre7
This issue has been fixed in 17w47a.
