The library version of gpg, is the gpgme library, I created php bindings
around it a while back, but it worked so crappy (many bugs) that I
abandoned using it.  The gpgme library also does nothing but fork a
processor to gpg and collect the results.  Currently, Werner (GPG
creator) has separated GPG into a library (libgcrypt) and the gpg
program itself, however, this library only provides basic encryption
functionality, much of the gpg work would have to be simulated.

Therefore, what I've done before is just use popen() or backticks to
interact with GPG.  I think, for now (until libgcrypt comes of age, so
to say) the best thing to do would be to just make this a pear class
(written with PHP) instead of an extension.

If you have any questions on how to do that, you can check out the
source of the perl extension, or feel free to ask me :)

[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9124: fopen() yet supports HTTP redirects

[j-f]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: WinNT
PHP version:  4.0.3pl1
PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem
Bug description:  fopen() yet supports HTTP redirects


The manual to fopen/popen/readfile says:

"Does not handle HTTP redirects, so you must include trailing slashes on directories."

That's not true, it does (since which version?). See also bug id #8876 (feature 
request: determine if redirected or not).

Re: Fw: [PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #8889: Memory is not being freed.

[Hartmut Holzgraefe]

shared libraries save memory (and disk space) if and only if they
are used by different programs simultaneously

in the case of apache there is usually no such gain as apache 
is started only once and then creates its process farm using
fork(), so that all theese processes share their code and static
data anyway

compiling everything in statically gives a performance gain 
(depending on the cpu architecture, on ia32 it can be significant,
on cpus like e.g. sparc this will be less obvious due to their
bigger register sets) 
and might ease debugging when you are in trouble, but this is 
not an agrument for production environments

Re: Fw: [PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #8889: Memory is not being freed.

[Zeev Suraski]

As Hartmut said, this argument is invalid in the Apache environment.  All 
the static code in Apache is loaded to memory only once (in copy-on-write 
pages, that will never be written to).  Using DSO's in Apache has no 
advantages other than ease of administration (which is an important thing 
by itself for many), and some disadvantages.

   20  MILLION
 E-MAIL ADDRESSES
  FOR ONLY $249
**Over Night International Shipping Included** 


Many Call This "The "Perfect E-Mail List"

Over 20-Million Of The Best E-Mail Addresses Available

_/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/ _/

Our research has found that many people have tried one or more of
the following...

Free Classifieds? (Don't work anymore)
Web Site? (Takes thousands of visitors)
Banners? (Expensive and losing their punch)
E-Zine? (Hope they have a *huge* subscriber list)
Search Engines? (Forget it, unless you're in the top 20)

 S O   W H A T   W I L L   W O R K ?

Although often misunderstood, there is one method that has proven
to succeed time-after-time.

 E - M A I L   M A R K E T I N G ! !

IT'S A FACT... If you're not using your computer to generate
income,  GOOD income,  you're leaving money on the table.

Here's what the experts have to say about E-Mail Marketing:

"E-mail is an incredible lead generation tool"
-Crains Magazine

"A gold mine for those who can take advantage of
bulk e-mail programs" - The New York Times

"Blows away traditional Mailing" - Advertising Age

Here's an example of your potential earnings if you have a
product or service that brings you a profit of around $30.
Remember, on the Internet, you can make money 7 days a week, 24
hours a day... even while you sleep, orders come from all over
the world!

Orders
Per DayWeekly  Monthly  Yearly

   1   $  210  $   840  $ 10,080

The least expensive and fastest way is through E-Mail Marketing.



  You want to make some money?

  I can put you in touch with over 20 million people at virtually no cost.

  Can you make one cent from each of theses names?

If you can you have a profit of over $200,000.00


  That's right, I have over 20 Million  Fresh  email

addresses that I will sell for only $249. These are all

fresh addresses that include almost every English person

on the Internet today, with no duplications. They are

all sorted and ready to be mailed.  That is the best

deal anywhere today!  


  Don't believe it? People are making that kind of

money right now by doing the same thing, that is

why you get so much email from people selling you

their productit works! 


  These 20 Million email addresses are 

yours to keep, so you can use them over and

over. 


  This offer is not for everyone. If you can not

see just how excellent the risk / reward ratio

in this offer is then there is nothing I can do

for you.  To make money you must stop dreaming

and TAKE ACTION.



Over the past 2 years, we have gained a reputation for having the
cleanest, most responsive e-mail address lists in the industry.
No one has gone to the work it takes to produce an e-mail address
list of this quality.

Here's how we prepare our e-mail lists:

1. We clean and eliminate all duplicates.

2. Next, we use a filter list of 400+ words/phrases to clean even
more. No address with inappropriate or profane wording survives!

3. Then we use our private database of thousands of known
Internet "extremists", those opposed to any kind of commercial
e-mail, and kicked off every one we could find.

4. All domains were verified to insure they're valid.

5. And finally, we sorted the list into easy-to-manage packets of
20,000 addresses in simple text (.txt) format that will work with
any computer operating system.

It is time to order!

Shipping is not an issue. 

**FedEx next day world wide shipping included

[PHP-DEV] Re: [PHP-QA] Resurrecting the Function Renaming Thread

[Phil Driscoll]

>Anyone else want to pipe in on this thread? I believe that the naming is

>the is_set != isset mistake.

Sorry for late input on this one - just got back from holiday, but I'd just
like to say that I think it is important that we address this issue. I don't
care too much what mechanism we use to get there, but it would be really
good if at some point in the nearish future there is a clean, orthogonal
version of the language which can be called official or pure PHP, where
function names and the order of arguments obey sensible consistent rules. It
does not matter if PHP has to carry legacy baggage around with it for some
time, but it does matter that we should all be able to program without
having to remember special cases and taking a quick peek in the manual to
find things like the order of needles and haystacks, or whether or not an
underscore is required.

Also, a cleaned up language gives people fewer excuses for not adopting PHP.

Anyway, count me in for help with any work/discussion required.

Cheers

[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #8938 Updated: Segfaults

Bug Type: Reproduceable crash
Description: Segfaults

at about 2001-02-05 19:00 EET I got the CVS again and my observation is that there are 
no Segmentation faults for more than 15 hours, but there is still a lot of HTML code 
in my error.log file, if it helps

the bug is still there.

1. I get from CVS (today) not from snaps does it matter ??
2. in my debian distribution i have /usr/sbin/apache and /usr/sbin/apache.dbg, i made 
/usr/sbin writable by www-data (the apache user) both the apache and apache.dbg didn't 
make core file (the php from the CVS was compiled with --enable-debug=on).
3. I tried gdb /usr/sbin/apache and run -X. when I access any page with a browser 
nothing was seen in the browser neighter in gdb. the same with gdb 
/usr/sbin/apache.dbg (probaly i didn't give it enough time to start or I did something 
wrong, give some more inforamtion on how to do it)

[2001-02-01 20:06:54] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Can you try again with today's snapshot? And to get a decent gdb backtrace
configure with --enable-debug and do following:

# gdb /opt/www/bin/httpd
(gdb) run -X

And then access the page which causes the crash and if it crashes:

(gdb) bt full

and then cut'n'paste the output and add it into this bug report.

when I enable output_handler = ob_gzhandler in php.ini the system works but on some 
conditions I do not know which in error-log of the apache comes a lot of SegFaults and 
even more - the html content of some of the pages. There are also clients who complain 
that cannot open the pages ('no content' states Netscape)

on few other machines which are much heavy loaded and they can't stand output_handler 
= ob_gzhandler in php.ini that's why we use only on some scripts

if (strstr($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['HTTP_ACCEPT_ENCODING'], 
'gzip')){ob_start("gzencode");header("Content-Encoding: gzip");} 

and the same problem happens again

Bug description:  submitting a boolean to an attribute seems to fail

I've been working with a class and had some slight problems. One of the attributes is 
declared as a boolean (default = false) within the class and I can't seem to set it to 
true form within a function. It doesn't help setting the boolean to true as a default 
and changing it to false. This will have the same effect, no change.

A workaround is to declare the boolean global but I do not like it. Is this a bug or 
am I blond?

Regards,

Hans

Well, does not help.

It still creates only the files
libpdf.a
libpdf_java.a
libpdf_java.la
libpdf_java.so
libpdf_java.so.0
libpdf_java.so.0.1.1

and PHP does not find them.

Kind regards, Frank

[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9129: Compiling Errors

[wildwayz]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: RedHat 5.2
PHP version:  4.0.4pl1
PHP Bug Type: *Install and Config
Bug description:  Compiling Errors

Hi, 

I am trying to upgrade from PHP3.0.7 to PHP4.0.4pl1 but I have had a nightmare.
Noone can tell me if PHP4.0.4 can be installed on RedHat 5.2 so I have that to contend 
with too.

Anyway

I am compiling with

./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-config-file-path=/home/www/conf 
--with-apache=/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/i386-linux/auto/Apache --enable-track-vars

and I get this...
Configuring SAPI modules
checking for AOLserver support... no
checking for Apache module support via DSO through APXS... no
checking for Apache module support... no
configure: error: Invalid Apache directory - unable to find httpd.h under 
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/i386-linux/auto/Apache

httpd.h is in the /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/i386-linux/auto/Apache/include   folder

If I compile it without Apache, it is ok until I make it then I get

/usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a(mf_format.o): In function `fn_format':
mf_format.o(.text+0x201): undefined reference to `__lxstat64'
/usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.a(my_fopen.o): In function `my_fopen':

make[1]: *** [php] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/webmaster/php-4.0.4pl1'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1


Any ideas?

Regards

James

Re: [PHP-DEV] Bug #9125: image file corrupted when upload

[phobo]

What is your code for opening the file?

Sounds to me like you're not opening the file as a 'binary file' in Linux.
Use 'b' as part of the fopen() statement. See http://php.net/fopen

Is there a certain number of Global variables, or number of functions you can load 
with the nsapi filter and NES?

I am using a function that uses many functions and many global variables.  PHP works 
fine through the rest of the application, but this one sections just dies, no errors 
or anything.  Apache works just fine with this application.

or anything.  Apache works just fine with this application.

Yeah, I need to fix this. I had actually forgotten about it (oops).

[PHP-DEV] wrong implementation of isset()?

[Martin Jansen]

The following was reported today in the german language newsgroup
news:de.comp.lang.php:



Shouldn't this script generate some output? IMO $a is set
and isset() should return true.

The manual says:
"isset -- Determine whether a variable is set"

So following the manual means that there _has_ to be
output because $a is set in fact.

Or am I wrong?

By default, any unset variable has value NULL - and isset(NULL) returns
false to indicate that. Similarly, assigning NULL to a variable unsets
it.

[PHP-DEV] Re: safe_mode redesign

[Jason Greene]

Zeev,

I understand your viewpoint, but I respectfully disagree. I believe that there are 
multiple levels of security, and that the OS is
just part of the picture. There always is some layer of application 
security(especially for those apps that run id=0). If you are a
hosting company ( which is becoming a very large business), then you desire a way to 
provide your customers with a programming
interface that does not infringe on other customers, or your systems security. Without 
a safe_mode, 
is still allowed.

While the details get tricky, and sometime complex, the overall concept is simple. 
Before any risky activity is performed, check the
list of things to block. There are tons of applications out there that perform these  
kind of important checks. ProFTPD is a good
example of one such application. It allows you to lock users into certain areas, use 
specific uids etc.

It seems that your biggest concern is giving users a false sense of security. This 
feature is something that would not be used by
the average user. The people who would mainly be using this would have an ok knowledge 
of security, and if you have an ok knowledge,
then you will know to Never Trust Anything
There is always a possibility of security methods being penetrated, everyone just has 
to be made aware that security is just
something that rules out the majority of breach attempts. That is why you need 
multiple levels

I believe that performing something similar to a chroot in the lower level file 
operations, would lock php itself into a protected
area. PHP is very modular, and has an excellent lower level API., both of which makes 
this a very possible thing.

I have spent quite a bit of time customizing PHP to work well in a secure environment, 
and I have seen other service providers doing
the same thing. The problem is that ppl are still going to do this whether its part of 
the codebase or not. If all of this work was
combined, then it can be shared, repaired, and optimized by everyone.

A safe programming chapter could be referred to in documentation as "An experimental 
security option designed for ISP and hosting
providers. This is by no means the finality of security, just a tool to help
in developing a secure environment"


Thanks,
Jason

I talked to Hans, off the list, and it is something with his code.  Sample

I have no karma or anything for the bug system, maybe I should ask for this.

Anyways, this is a bogus report.

Bug description:  submitting a boolean to an attribute seems to fail

I've been working with a class and had some slight problems. One of the
attributes is declared as a boolean (default = false) within the class and I
can't seem to set it to true form within a function. It doesn't help setting
the boolean to true as a default and changing it to false. This will have
the same effect, no change.

A workaround is to declare the boolean global but I do not like it. Is this
a bug or am I blond?

Path simply means the directory in which the file resides.  Remove the

Well, sure, isset(NULL) should return false, it's not a variable set in the
scope. A constant(?) yes, but not a variable.

But if you set a variable at some point in a script, would it not stand to
reason that that name is in the global/local namespace, and therefore IS
set?

It's somewhat conflicting when you reason:



Yields:


   [GLOBALS] => Array
 *RECURSION*
[a] => 1
[b] => 2
[c] => 
)

So, $c is set, since it is contained in $GLOBALS. Yet it's not, because it's
NULL.

I vote for isset() on a NULL value should be true if it's in the namespace.

RE: [PHP-DEV] wrong implementation of isset()?

[Marten Gustafsson]

I have always (although I know this wasn?t the case prior to PHP 4) thought
that unset() removed the variable from memory. Clearly this can?t be the
case if it has a value of NULL.

But if this is the way things work then is_null() ought to be an alias of
isset().

[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9031 Updated: ob_gzhandler memory leak and Headers already sent message!

[aboldt]

ID: 9031
User Update by: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Status: Open
Bug Type: Output Control
Description: ob_gzhandler memory leak and Headers already sent message!

I've just found out what the problem is, and it's kind of weird:
With ob_gzhandler enabled (from php.ini or with ob_start("ob_gzhandler") in the .php) 
each readfile() makes the "Cannot add header information - headers already sent" error 
message appear.
This doesn't happen with output buffering enabled and no ob_gzhandler, it only happens 
with ob_gzhandler enabled.

Also tried to replace readfile with fpassthru(fopen()) but got the same result.

Hope this helps you fix the problem.

If you have any questions feel free to ask, I've been experimenting quite a lot.

Tried the php4-200102020545 snapshot and I still get the

httpd: PHP Warning:  Cannot add header information - headers already sent in Unknown 
on line 0

error message when enabling output_handler = ob_gzhandler.
This probably still causes a memory leak.

Found another interesting thing: when trying to see the headers of a ob_gzhandler 
compressed page with lynx, I get the following lynx error message:

Can't access startfile http://localhost/test.php

That's using lynx -head -source http://localhost/test.php. Seems lynx sees something 
which it doesn't like. With ob_gzhandler disabled, I get the normal http headers when 
invoking that lynx command.

When enabling output_handler = ob_gzhandler in php.ini, my Linux system starts to eat 
more and more memory in an unusual way, like there was a memory leak, like many people 
have reported.

But what is absolutely weird is that after enabling ob_gzhandler, I start to get this 
error messages in my log files:

Cannot add header information - headers already sent in Unknown on line 0

Which is weird, because one of the features of output buffering is to avoid that kind 
of problems. What's even more weird is that I don't get any "headers already sent" 
messages with output_handler = ob_gzhandler disabled!

an investment of only $25 U.S. Dollars expense one time 
THANK'S TO THE COMPUTER AGE AND THE INTERNET ! 
== 
BE A MILLIONAIRE LIKE OTHERS WITHIN A YEAR!!! 
Before you say ''Bull'', please read the following. This is the letter you 
have been hearing about on the news lately. Due to the popularity of 
this letter on the Internet, a national weekly news program recently devoted 
an entire show to the investigation of this program described below, to see 
if it really can make people money. The show also investigated whether or 
not the program was legal. 
Their findings proved once and for all that there are ''absolutely NO Laws 
prohibiting the participation in the program and if people can -follow the 
simple instructions, they are bound to make some mega bucks with only 
$25 out of pocket cost''. DUE TO THE RECENT INCREASE OF 
POPULARITY & RESPECT THIS PROGRAM HAS ATTAINED, 
IT IS CURRENTLY WORKING BETTER THAN EVER. 
This is what one had to say: ''Thanks to this profitable opportunity. I 
was approached many times before but each time I passed on it. I am 
so gladI finally joined just to see what one could expect in return for the 
minimal effort and money required. To my astonishment, I received total $ 
610,470.00 in 21 weeks, with money still coming in." 
Pam Hedland, Fort Lee, New Jersey. 
=== 
Here is another testimonial: "This program has been around for a long 
time but I never believed in it. But one day when I received this again 
in the mail I decided to gamble my $25 on it. I followed the simple 
instructions and walaa . 3 weeks later the money started to come in. 
First month I only made $240.00 but the next 2 months after that I made 
a total of $290,000.00. So far, in the past 8 months by re-entering the 
program, I have made over $710,000.00 and I am playing it again. The 
key to success in this program is to follow the simple steps and NOT change 
anything.'' More testimonials later but first, 
= PRINT THIS NOW FOR YOUR FUTUREREFERENCE ==

name appears ON THAT LIST next to the report. MAKE SURE YOUR RETURN 
ADDRESS IS ON YOUR ENVELOPE TOP LEFT CORNER in case of any mail 
problems. 
=== When you place your order, make sure you order each of the 5 reports. 
You will need all 5 reports so that you can save them on your computer 
and resell them. YOUR TOTAL COST $5 X 5=$25.00. 
Within a few days you will receive, vie e-mail, each of the 5 reports from 
these 5 different individuals. Save them on your computer so they will be 
accessible for you to send to the 1,000's of people who will order them 
from you. Also make a floppy of these reports and keep it on your desk in 
case something happen to your computer. 
IMPORTANT - DO NOT alter the names of the people who are listed next 
to each report, or their sequence on the list, in any way other than what is 
instructed below in step '' 1 through 6 '' or you will loose out on majority 
of your profits. Once you understand the way this works, you will also see 
how it does not work if you change it. Remember, this method has been 
tested, and if you alter, it will NOT work !!! People have tried to put their 
friends/relatives names on all five thinking they could get all the money. But 
it does not work this way. Believe us, we all have tried to be greedy and then 
nothing happened. So Do Not try to change anything other than what is 
instructed. Because if you do, it will not work for you. 
Remember, honesty reaps the reward!!! 
1 After you have ordered all 5 reports, take this advertisement and 
REMOVE the name & address of the person in REPORT # 5. This person 
has made it through the cycle and is no doubt counting their fortune. 
2 Move the name & address in REPORT # 4 down TO REPORT # 5. 
3 Move the name & address in REPORT # 3 down TO REPORT # 4. 
4 Move the name & address in REPORT # 2 down TO REPORT # 3. 
5 Move the name & address in REPORT # 1 down TO REPORT # 2 
6 Insert YOUR name & address in the REPORT # 1 Position. PLEASE MAKE 
SURE you copy every name & address ACCURATELY!

But if I declare the variable in my script (and in the namespace),
it's existing, no matter which value it has (String, Integer, NULL
or whatever). As a result of that, isset() should return true.

RE: [PHP-DEV] wrong implementation of isset()?

[Chris Newbill]

null, adjective: having no value

IMHO, isset() should be left as is.  Either way if you are looking for a
null value you will have to use '== NULL' or is_null().

if (isset($a) && is_null($a))

if (isset($a))
if (is_null($a))

etc...

The only possible situation I can think(right now) of where this might be
useful is if you do not care that the value is null and null is a perfectly
legal value(or non-value).  In which case, all you are accomplishing is
breaking everyone else's script who does not allow null values because they
rely on isset() returning false and not letting these by.

[Sean R. Bright]

Yes, I found this feature of PHP quite useful when I wanted to crash the
server.  There are many places on the web that you can download these very
useful applications that call functions infinitely.  The applications for
this type of code are innumerable.

[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9136 Updated: simple script with infinite function calls causes seg fault

[waldschrott]

ID: 9136
Updated by: waldschrott
Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Status: Closed
Bug Type: Reproduceable crash
Assigned To: waldschrott
Comments:

and guess this "bug" was present in any version before, what
do you expect to happen here? you will never leave these
function calls (as you know I guess), as far as your stack
is full it is full

remember php has to remember each and every function call it
did...

a()
   b()
  a()
 b()
   

if you really need exactly this construct, I would suggest
you to use a static variable to count the total function
calls and find the critical values a specific system
segfaults (with your original code), then you stick a
for(;;) around it and implement a check (eg. in a()) against
the static variable to leave the recursion if a value with
enough distance to the critical value is reached, then you
should be able to begin the recursion again

any recursion can be displayed as a loop, do not use
recursion if you want to recurse infinitely

[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9137: eval adds function to global space rather than class method

[aj]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: Linux
PHP version:  4.0.4pl1
PHP Bug Type: Class/Object related
Bug description:  eval adds function to global space rather than class method

I am trying to generate class methods on the fly.

I created a string which was php code for a function. I wished this funciton to be a 
class method. I call eval on the string, and it produces no errors. When I wish to 
call that method of the object, the script fails indicating a call to an undefined 
funciton. However, I can call that function in the page space, rather than as a class 
method. But, the function is useless unless it is a method.

The following is part of the code that is executed in the constructor:

$str = "";
foreach($this->getMappedAttributes() as $attribute)
{
  $str .= "$"."this->_".$attribute['attribute']." = \"\";";
  $str .= "function get".$attribute['attribute']."() {";
  $str .= "return $"."this->_".$attribute['attribute'].";}";
}
eval($str);

Hey,

why didn't you make it a Feature Request then? But I suppose you tried,

BTW, I think this would be a nice idea for the new safe_mode, but I wonder

Because I don't consider it a problem that needs solving.  I am probably

[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9136 Updated: simple script with infinite function calls causes seg fault

[nathan]

ID: 9136
User Update by: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Old-Status: Feedback
Status: Open
Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Description: simple script with infinite function calls causes seg fault

I agree that recursion like this is not a good thing, it was an accidental bug in a 
very complex PHP module we were writing.  The problem is that it's an incredibly 
difficult bug to find when PHP just seg faults and you get a No Data error from 
Netscape.  When you are coding a very complex module as we were, the problem is not 
immediately obvious as in this example.

I would expect buggy PHP code like this to give me a stack overflow error report or 
execution time exceeded error or something.  I just sat there for about 5 minutes 
going WHAT!?!?! when I made a set of changes and suddenly PHP started seg faulting all 
over the place.

I agree that an ini setting to check the stack level against a maximum sounds like a 
good idea.  I think it would be good to have on by default (not just safe mode) given 
that many PHP developers are new programmers who can easily make recursion mistakes 
(not to mention more experienced php coders like me who still easily make recursion 
mistakes ;).  Just set the value to something large enough to catch these recursion 
bugs without effecting the running of most normal recursive applications.  True 
maniacs can turn it off by setting to -1 or something.  I prefer to be protected from 
myself until I'm ready to grow out of the protection...

[2001-02-06 17:41:12] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
maybe we should move this to feature request for safe mode?
it would be fine to give the server owner the possibility to
autokill scripts which would kill the server in a few
microseconds, shouldn't it be implementable without loosing
performance, check the level the stack is filled up against
a values in php.ini maybe...

---

[2001-02-06 17:31:02] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and guess this "bug" was present in any version before, what
do you expect to happen here? you will never leave these
function calls (as you know I guess), as far as your stack
is full it is full

remember php has to remember each and every function call it
did...

a()
   b()
  a()
 b()
   

if you really need exactly this construct, I would suggest
you to use a static variable to count the total function
calls and find the critical values a specific system
segfaults (with your original code), then you stick a
for(;;) around it and implement a check (eg. in a()) against
the static variable to leave the recursion if a value with
enough distance to the critical value is reached, then you
should be able to begin the recursion again

any recursion can be displayed as a loop, do not use
recursion if you want to recurse infinitely

---

[2001-02-06 17:22:36] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
PHP doesn't handle infinite recursion, and as earlier was discussed on the php-dev 
list, it wont be implemented to guard for this, because of the high performance impact.

<%

function a () {
b();
}

function b () {
a();
}

a();

%> 

done
-

The simple script above causes a seg fault.  If you need more info on configuration 
etc please mail me.  We made this simple example from a more compilcated instance.  
This bug was also present in 4.0.3pl1, we upgraded to try and stop the seg fault...

thanks!

That is probably caused by a construct like

PHP_ARG_WITH(foo, ..)
..
AC_ADD_LIBPATH($PHP_FOO/lib)

I.e. when using --with-foo, PHP_FOO is set to yes and the
config.m4 does not handle that case.  I've reviewed the
domxml extension's config.m4 and it seems to work properly.
Please post your full configure line.

I don't think that this is feature (or a bug FTM) - this is just how things
were implemented - a side effect of needing both recursion and allowing
functions to call other functions.

How about ... no PHP script should ever cause the webserver to segfault?
Segfaults are bad.

Ok, those are quite a lot entries.  Did you add one recently?
When did you see that kind of error for the first time?  Did

RE: [PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9136: simple script with infinite function calls causes seg fault

[Sean R. Bright]

I never said that recursion or the ability for a function to call another
function was a feature/bug.  I agree that they are necessary to the
language.  My point is simply that I don't think PHP needs to be "fixed" so
that this user's mistake is somehow valid.

Take this example (in C):
/***/
#include 

int a(void);
int b(void);

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
a();
return;
}

int a(void) {
b();
}

int b(void) {
a();
}
/***/

If compiled and run this results in a segfault under linux2.2.18 (glibc2).
gcc doesn't warn me that this is invalid.

I am not really sure what we are arguing at this point...

My point is that with safe_mode, $x = file("/etc/passwd") can probably 
still be achieved, only perhaps not that easily.  The false sense of 
security that it gives you may (will) cause administrators to set their 
servers up in an insecure way.

Well, I respectfully disagree :)   One thing we haven't done, is telling 
people one clear statement - 'Safe mode is NOT secure'.  It's a functional 
feature, not a security feature.  It hasn't been audited, and God knows how 
many bugs and loopholes lurk in the dark (my guess - many).
I don't mind seeing an impressive safe mode being implemented, as long as 
it's presented as a functional feature, with the appropriate disclaimers 
telling people that this does *NOT* replace security measure that they 
would otherwise use.

Also, be advised that many functions don't use the APIs, but use system 
calls directly.

[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9138: setlocale changes over all thought process of Apache child.

[ngaugler]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: Sun OS 5.7
PHP version:  4.0.3pl1
PHP Bug Type: Apache related
Bug description:  setlocale changes over all thought process of Apache child.

Script:


Desc:
When PHP is compiled as an Apache module, and an individual script changes the locale 
via setlocale, PHP never resets it, and the Apache child continues to run in the new 
locale.  The problem with this is the log file gets printed in a new locale, and any 
new requests coming into that individual Apache child use the same setlocale as the 
original request.  This causes problems with other PHP based scripts, as well as 
analyzing programs trying to determine the numerous locales printed in the log file. 
(ie: Jan can be ene, Jan, etc..)  Please have setlocale replaced to what it was before 
the PHP script ran, as well as any other variables that can be thought to do this when 
this is brought to your attention.  Thanks!

Perhaps, in order to maintain compatibility, we should re-document is_set,
create the documentation for is_null, and look into creating a new function
that will determine if something has "ever been inside the namespace", regardless
of its current value, or absence of value.

Right now, the *documentation* for isset does imply that:
$a = NULL;
isset($a); //TRUE
when this is not the case. 

Specifically, the documentation says "Returns true if a variable exists"
rather than "Returns true if a variable exists, but has not been sunsequently
assigned a value (or non-value) of NULL, and has not been unset().

Although I agree, I don't think it's ever going to happen. Somehow, the
head PHP folks don't seem to be too interested in combatting spam; I
brought up the discussion a few weeks ago and was met with strong
resistance.

Maybe when the list gets to be 20% spam they'll listen. It _is_ steadily
getting to be more and more as time progresses.

You'd be surprised to learn how many anti-spam measures we
already have in place.  Those measures effectively dropped
99.9% of spam in the past; but spammers have adopted new
methods, so we need to change as well.

I noticed that the still existing, but inactive php3 list is
always spammed in a row with active lists.  Assuming that no
legitimate email is delivered to that list, we can treat all
emails as spam and hence automatically blacklist further spam
based on certain criteria.  We can create a separate list
where a notification about that event is sent to, so that the
actions are trackable.

Existing lists would introduce a certain delay between
receiving an email and forwarding it to list members.  The
delay would increase the chance that the spam has already
been delivered to the php3 blacklist, when we perform the
pre-forwarding check for existing lists.

So, if we pursue this plan, we should continue advertising
the php3 list in prominent places where email address
harvesters will find it (list archives might do a good job at
that already).

we should just define (and document) this similar to Andrei (note, I do 
not use the word "the same" I use that word equal, what means different 
things):

NULL  equals  absence_of_value  equals  absence_of_variable_in_namespace

I can imagine no case where people would need to differentiate between 
NULL and never been in namespace, we should not allow this, otherwise we 
would introduce the differentiation into a third state, non existent, 
what raises the wtf-factor and is not required as far as I can think

I agree. I've watched a lot of seasoned programmers learning PHP and the
behaviour of various functions operating on NULL, 0, and '' has always had an
extremely high wtf-factor (I really like that term). Most of the former
discrepancies have been fixed, though.

Try as I might, I can't think of a good case where you'd want to check for NULL
and existance in the namespace.

[PHP-DEV] why doesn't list() handle associative arrays?

[Cynic]

$a['x'] = 'one' ;
$a['y'] = 'two' ;
$a['z'] = 'three' ;

list( $x , $y , $z ) = $a ;

[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #8921 Updated: Require() function : filename string not terminated correctly internally

[mahony]

ID: 8921
User Update by: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Status: Open
Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function
Description: Require() function : filename string not terminated correctly internally

Work-around.
---
I've since found that the problem only manifests itself when variables are used as 
parameters to Require().
eg: 
$filename = "test.html";
require($filename);

If a string constant is used as a parameter the function performs correctly.
eg:
require("test.html");

Consequently I was able to solve my problem by using PHPs "evaluate variable within 
string" trick -
eg: 
$filename = "test.html";
require("$filename");

Hi,

I've found what appears to be a reproducable bug with random effects.

When I pass a seemingly perfect filename string to the Require() function it comes 
back (2 times out of 3) with extra characters at the end, causing the require function 
to fail to find the file. The characters are illustrated below, and many seem to be 
non-alphabetic. It looks like a C string buffer overflow problem (ie: the length of 
the string has been enlarged by a random amount between about 2 and 5 characters, and 
it's picking up additional characters directly out of memory).

This is the code that is executing :

if("" == $inc_filename) {
  print("You have to enter a filename first !");
}
else  // NON-Blank include filename
{
  print("Filename = ".$inc_filename);   // < Note : here the filename displays 
fine

  require( $inc_filename );   // < Note : here it is corrupted
}


These are the output lines I got  (note the crap at the end of the filename in the 
error message) :

 Filename = inc/britz/britzspg.inc
Fatal error: Failed opening required 'inc/britz/britzspg.incÿ¿ñ'  
(include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in
/home/ekiwi/public_html/layout.php on line 199


  Filename = inc/britz/britzspg.inc
 Fatal error: Failed opening required 'inc/britz/britzspg.inc)y'
 (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in
/home/ekiwi/public_html/layout.php
 on line 199

 THEN IT WAS OK TWICE, followed by

 Filename = inc/britz/britzspg.inc
Fatal error: Failed opening required 'inc/britz/britzspg.inc'A'
 (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in
/home/ekiwi/public_html/layout.php

Fatal error: Failed opening required 'inc/britz/britzspg.inc)±'
 (include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php') in
/home/ekiwi/public_html/layout.php
 on line 199

To see this in action see : 
http://chips.cwa.co.nz:8080/display.php?FEATURE_ID=13

Be aware that it works perfectly about a third of the time, so keep pressing the 
refresh button on your browser until it throws the error.

Re: [PHP-DEV] wrong implementation of isset()?

[Cynic]

with all respect to the people who develop the language, I 
think this is nonsense:

$rs = mysql_query( 'select x, y, z from foo where ...' ) ;
$x = mysql_fetch_array( $rs , MYSQL_NUM ) ;
var_dump( $x[2] ) ;
var_dump( isset( $x[2] ) ) ;

NULL # well, the column contains null values
bool(false) 

But since (almost) everybody else disagrees, I must be missing 
something obvious.

BTW, does $x = null really equal to unset( $x ) or does 
isset() just get fooled by its value?

You mean that this:

  $a['x'] = 'one';
  $a['y'] = 'two';
  $a['z'] = 'three';
  list($x, $y, $z) = $a;

...should work like this?

  $x = current(each($a));
  $y = current(each($a));
  $z = current(each($a));

Given that numeric indices doen't necessarily indicate element
positions, I don't see why that your request wouldn't be reasonable.

What we are not interested in is stopping people who are not subscribed to
the lists directly from participating.  A lot of people read the lists via
nntp or through various web gateways.  You can rant all you want about the
spam, but until you come up with a workable way to not cut off these

Re: [PHP-DEV] Re: safe_mode redesign

[Boian Bonev]

hi,

here is something i have posted some days ago:

or better if you have untrusted users who shall have php access, give
them
cgi php and use apache's exec wrapper to setuid to user's uid and chroot to
her home dir.

if their count is not too big run their own web servers under their uids and
again chrooted to their home dirs. this is the best solution i know of.

...

most of the shared hosting environments at least allow one user to access
another's files. not mentioning system access, etc.
a safe_mode will not help in these cases - like named buffer overruns a
safe_mode hole will be discovered weekly.

i am running both configs since apache1.2/php3.0.5 and except performance
issues i have seen no other drawbacks...

Re: [PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9136 Updated: simple script with infinite function calls causes seg fault

[Boian Bonev]

hi,

indeed it is theoretically impossible to track this :)

implement a recursive alrorithm for something e.g.:

function foo($n) { // calc $n!
if ($n<=1)
return $n;
else
return foo($n-1)*$n;
}

now tell me if it is infinite or finite? ;-) this is a verification and
cannot be solved runtime.

the best thing that can be done is to set a stack limit (php function call
level) to something reasonable and thus avoid the segfault.

I operate mailing lists using the listar package, available for debian
and other Unices.

It can reject, out-of-the-box, mail based on
* grepping headers for regular expressions
* requiring people be in the user database

Users in the database usually have the "echpost" flag - meaning send
them copies of posts.  But if you turn off echopost (e.g. for an
account you want to post from but not receive posts to), you're
completely set.

You're right that this has to be something that list gods care enough
about to fix. Given the attitude toward bug mailings, you're probably right.

Understandable.

Listar (the one I'm familiar) will send posts that aren't classified as
spam, but still from non-members, to moderators.  Depending on your
mailer, one keypress ("bounce this to [EMAIL PROTECTED]")
will approve the post and send it out. This can be tweaked to
auto-approve future posts from that person.

Now there's an idea I like a great deal.

General list members may wish to stop reading here; what follows is an
explaination (mostly to Rasmus, but also possibly of general interest)
for what Rasmus sees as "rants" and not workable ways to combat spam.

You see, Rasmus, the problem is: I don't have any knowledge of how the
PHP list system operates. The idea here that Sascha has proposed is
something that I could've never proposed because I didn't even know
there was a php3 mailing list. Hell, for that matter, if we really
needed to (and php3 was still an active list), we could create a decoy
list specifically for that purpose. The point is, I offerred up what I
saw as a possible solution. I am not bitter because my idea wasn't
adopted; rather, I am frustrated because I put forth some initiative
only to be shot down.

The way I see it, this problem cannot be impossible. There's a known
behavior that we don't want; what we need is a way to prevent it. It
only seems logical to me that someone without the knowledge of how the
"black box" that the list server is to me wouldn't be able to offer up
much of a solution - only precursory suggestions. So how come instead of
being given a little more information about fixing the problem I was
given a "No, that won't work. Period."? Now it seems maybe Sascha has
found a solution for the problem. I'm glad - we might be making progress
again. I'm anxious to hear what others have to say.

On a more general note pertaining to my personal philosophy, I
completely subscribe to the principle of suggesting an alternative
instead of just complaining. You'd be surprised at how many things I've
wished were different sometimes, but I try to keep my mouth shut unless
I can also propose a fix. I proposed all I knew how to propose,
including making posting to the list a priveledge of subscribers only. I
also tried to help form the basis of workarounds that could be
implemented to keep newsgroup-based posting viable. In short, I'm only
trying to help, and I'm only trying to help in a constructive, helpful
manner.

I give my apologies if my suggestions aren't taken as such. However, I
will continue to offer my opinion & suggestions on this and other
matters with the hope that at some point I will not be looked upon as
just another whining, ranting complainer.

[PHP-DEV] Re: [PHP-PEAR] Re: [PHP-DEV] Re: Dear Friends & Future Millionaire:

[Toby Butzon]

Another possibility :) Would require a bit of shifting things around,
which could be quite a bit of a disturbance.

I have a get-to-the-root-of-it-all sort of question: Is the problem that
it's too hard to combat spam or that the people in charge of the lists
don't have time to really get into it? 

Don't get me wrong on this; I'm not trying to say anybody's slouching or
anything. I know from my personal experience though that things can just
get to be too much. Perhaps the task of fixing the problem could be
given to a few people as a group, let them discuss it, come up with a
good, workable plan, and present it to php-dev or some such and then let
them implement it if everybody likes the plan.

Re: [PHP-DEV] The library yes/lib does not exist

[Boian Bonev]

hi,

i've seen the same really soon and could track it:


checking for DOM support... yes
checking for DOM in default path... found in /usr/local
checking for libxml version... >= 2.2.7
- ac_add_library_path /usr/local/lib

 -lxml -ldb -lgdbm -lcurl -lbz2 -lssl -lcrypto -lresolv -lm -ldl -lcrypt
 -lnsl -lresolv
checking for libz needed by libxml ... already zlib support
--- -lxml -ldb -lgdbm -lcurl -lbz2 -lssl -lcrypto -lresolv -lm -ldl -lcrypt 
-lnsl -lresolv -Lyes/lib -lz
checking whether to enable exif support... no



the --- is debug echo from ext/domxml/config.m4:

withval=$old_withval
  else
echo  $LIBS
echo "checking for libz needed by libxml ... already zlib support"
LIBS="$LIBS -L$withval/lib -lz"
echo --- $LIBS
  fi

  AC_DEFINE(HAVE_DOMXML,1,[ ])
  AC_ADD_LIBRARY(z)

Re: [PHP-DEV] Re: Dear Friends & Future Millionaire:

[Rasmus Lerdorf]

This might be workable.  I fear Sascha's solution could be rather prone to
mistakes, and it would slow down list delivery for everyone.  Requiring
approval for non-list members is a hassle for them, but if enough people
are willing to be on the receiving end of these messages to be approved it
probably wouldn't be too bad.  We just need to figure out how to do this
with ezmlm.

[PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #9140: mysql_fetch_array($query, MYSQL_ASSOC) returns assoc AND num indexes

[kbertone]

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Operating system: Unix and Windows
PHP version:  4.0.4
PHP Bug Type: MySQL related
Bug description:  mysql_fetch_array($query, MYSQL_ASSOC) returns assoc AND num indexes

mysql_fetch_array($query, MYSQL_ASSOC) seems to return BOTH the numerical AND the 
associative indexes (should only return associative). Have tried 
mysql_fetch_assoc($query) and I get the same problem.  Running PHP 4.0.4 on both Unix 
and Windows and problem appears on both.  Am I crazy?
