Operating system: Any? (Mine: Linux 2.4.13)
PHP version: 4.1.2
PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem
Bug description: Circulaire includes makes Apache hang.
Hello,
Althought its the user responsibility to verify his scripts, my user did
not have enough knowledge of PHP to be able to verify all his scripts and
my Apache died.
The problem?
In short, i reproduced the problem by making 2 files:
file1.php:
<? include("http://host.name/file2.php";); ?>
file2.php
<? include("http://host.name/file1.php";); ?>
When you open http://host.name/file1.php you will see an enormous amount
of Apache childs. And apache hangs (it does not respond to new
requests!).
I know its the user his fault, but when you have a very complicated
website this might happen because of bugs in your scripts. Because of this
my Apache webserver died and I had to restart Apache to make it work
again. Perhaps its a good idea to add somekind of check to prevent things
like this?
