Reproduce code: --------------- <? $xml = new SimpleXMLElement('<data></data>'); $xml->addChild('test'); echo wddx_serialize_value($xml, 'Variables'); echo 'hello world'; ?> Expected result: ---------------- To see the WDDX output and 'hello world' :) Actual result: -------------- Potential DoS against web server and this log entry: [Sun Aug 24 06:44:19 2008] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 133955606 bytes) in /usr/home/aragon/dev/admin.infinite/test.php on line 5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45901&edit=1
