Bug description: Memory corruption when dealing with cyclic references between objects
PHP is using reference counter garbage collection so it is not able to
deallocate objects with cyclic references. But
it should not be a reason for corrupting memory. The following example
cause either loosing value of object property either segmentation fault at
PHP 4.3.1 and PHP-4.3.2RC1. The fault takes place after inserting 65533
objects (0xfffd - looks like somewhere short type is used:).
In first case after inserting about 65k of objects the system reports "PHP
Notice: Undefined property:" when
accessing "opened" field in storeObject.
<?php
class Storage {
var $opened;
var $count;
function Storage() {
$this->objByOidMap = array();
$this->opened = true;
$this->count = 0;
}
function storeObject(&$obj) {
if ($this->opened) {
if ($obj->__oid__ == 0) {
$this->count += 1;
$obj->__oid__ = $this->count;
$obj->__storage__ = &$this;
$this->objByOidMap[$obj->__oid__] = &$obj;
}
}
}
}
class Object {
var $__storage__;
var $__oid__;
}
$storage = &new Storage();
for ($i = 0; $i < 100000; $i++) {
print("i=$i\n");
$obj = &new Object();
$storage->storeObject($obj);
}
?>
