Of course it's not a bug, it's a feature request. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-08-02 11:20:20] m...@php.net Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. . ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-08-02 08:27:35] carlosV2 dot 0 at gmail dot com Description: ------------ I think the unserialize method should have a final string length check. You can make objects disappear just running the code in the Test Script: This code outputs just the first object. This is something it can easily happend when you are working with sockets or data streams. Probably it is the developer's fault but actually to serialized objects together are not only one object. I think checking the string length at the end of the parser and rising a warning is enough to alert the developer that this things are happening. Test script: --------------- $o1 = new stdClass(); $o1->name = 'Object1'; $o2 = new stdClass(); $o2->name = 'Object2'; $objects = serialize($o1) . serialize($o2); print_r(unserialize($objects)); Expected result: ---------------- A warning Actual result: -------------- Only the first object: stdClass Object ( [name] => Object1 ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65376&edit=1
