ID: 52719 Patch added by: ni...@php.net Reported by: apouch at woozworld dot com Summary: array_walk_recursive crashes if third param of the function is by reference Status: Feedback Type: Bug Package: Arrays related Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.3.3 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The following patch has been added/updated: Patch Name: array_walk_recursive.patch Revision: 1327669602 URL: https://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug=52719&patch=array_walk_recursive.patch&revision=1327669602 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-12-23 11:42:08] nikita dot ppv at googlemail dot com This issue was caused by http://svn.php.net/viewvc?view=revision&revision=300371 which was commited as a fix for https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51552. Basically for a recursive array walk the zval will be zval_ptr_dtor'd prematurely and multiple times (every time it leaves one recursive array_walk call). This leads to the memory corruption and in some cases to a segfault. I'm not exactly sure what purpose that change served, at least the respective phpt test runs cleanly if I revert the changeset. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-12-21 16:16:47] ni...@php.net Another test case: http://codepad.viper-7.com/Mw3DhS. You can observe the memory corruption in the values that are output. Also you can simply toggle the crash be removing the 'alpha' elements: http://codepad.viper-7.com/luVZw5 will crash. By the way, I could not reproduce the crash on a debug build (I get only leaks there, too). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-12-13 13:19:19] php at oxanvanleeuwen dot nl This is still a problem with PHP 5.3.4. Strange is that it segfaults after the call to array_walk_recursive; running is printed. See this test script, which segfaults: <?php $array = array("hello", array("bye")); $flat = array(); array_walk_recursive($array, function (&$value, $key, &$flat) { $flat[] = $value; }, $flat); echo "Running"; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-08-30 19:36:24] johan...@php.net Please try using this snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php5.3-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://windows.php.net/snapshots/ I get no crash but a memleak which is handled gracefully with current SVN. No crash[Mon Aug 30 19:33:37 2010] Script: '-' /home/johannes/src/php/php-src/branches/PHP_5_3/Zend/zend_execute_API.c(888) : Freeing 0x00DEB060 (32 bytes), script=- === Total 1 memory leaks detected === ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-08-27 22:42:39] apouch at woozworld dot com Description: ------------ This is something that changed between PHP 5.3.2 and PHP 5.3.3. array_walk_recursive accepts a 3rd parameter for 'userdata'. If: - this parameter is an object AND - the user-created function used as second parameter to array_walk_recursive defines the third parameter by reference AND - The array given as first parameter to array_walk_recursive is a multi-dimensional array, PHP crashes. Test script: --------------- $array = array('foo', 'bar' => array('taz')); $foo = new stdClass(); array_walk_recursive($array, create_function('&$v, $k, &$u', ''), $foo); echo 'No crash'; //This one works: array_walk_recursive($array, create_function('&$v, $k, $u', ''), $foo); Expected result: ---------------- No Crash Actual result: -------------- PHP crashes ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=52719&edit=1
