From: delphij at FreeBSD dot org Operating system: FreeBSD 7.0 PHP version: 5.2.5 PHP Bug Type: Reproducible crash Bug description: [PATCH] Avoid direct reference of environ in POSIX systems
Description: ------------ PHP would crash in certain cases where putenv() is being called, in POSIX systems which calls free() in putenv(). The following patch always duplicate the environment from the environment instead of relying on that they are invariant. --- ext/standard/basic_functions.c.orig 2008-04-25 16:26:14.885468614 -0700 +++ ext/standard/basic_functions.c 2008-04-25 16:32:46.215744075 -0700 @@ -3861,9 +3862,7 @@ SetEnvironmentVariable(pe->key, "bugbug"); #endif putenv(pe->previous_value); -# if defined(PHP_WIN32) efree(pe->previous_value); -# endif } else { # if HAVE_UNSETENV unsetenv(pe->key); @@ -4463,12 +4462,8 @@ pe.previous_value = NULL; for (env = environ; env != NULL && *env != NULL; env++) { if (!strncmp(*env, pe.key, pe.key_len) && (*env)[pe.key_len] == '=') { /* found it */ -#if defined(PHP_WIN32) /* must copy previous value because MSVCRT's putenv can free the string without notice */ pe.previous_value = estrdup(*env); -#else - pe.previous_value = *env; -#endif break; } } -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44836&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44836&r=mysqlcfg
