Bug #37569 WDDX bad character encoding
Submitted: 2006-05-23 22:19 UTC Modified: 2006-05-25 23:24 UTC
From: jdolecek at NetBSD dot org Assigned: iliaa (profile)
Status: Closed Package: WDDX related
PHP Version: 5.1.4 OS: Any
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
WDDX serializes control charactes using a <char code="XX"/> construct, However, the code contains sign extension bug, and on platforms with signed char the result XX contains incorrect (sign-extended) code.

This affects e.g. UTF8-encoded non-ASCII text, which can contain characters in 128-160 range.

Fix:

Reproduce code:
---------------
On UNIX with iso-8859-1 locale:

echo wddx_serialize_value(chr(1))."\n";
echo wddx_serialize_value(chr(128))."\n";


Expected result:
----------------
<wddxPacket version='1.0'><header/><data><string><char code='01'/></string></data></wddxPacket>
<wddxPacket version='1.0'><header/><data><string><char code='80'/></string></data></wddxPacket>



Actual result:
--------------
<wddxPacket version='1.0'><header/><data><string><char code='01'/></string></data></wddxPacket>
<wddxPacket version='1.0'><header/><data><string><char code='FFFFFF80'/></string></data></wddxPacket>
