Bug #41125 PDO mysql + quote() + prepare() can result in seg fault
Submitted: 2007-04-17 20:34 UTC Modified: 2008-10-10 12:19 UTC
Votes:6
Avg. Score:4.7 ± 0.7
Reproduced:5 of 5 (100.0%)
Same Version:2 (40.0%)
Same OS:0 (0.0%)
From: ed at bronto dot com Assigned: felipe (profile)
Status: Closed Package: PDO related
PHP Version: 5.2.1 OS: Centos
Private report: No CVE-ID: None
 [2007-04-17 20:34 UTC] ed at bronto dot com
Description:
------------
Using PDO->quote on a portion of a query to be prepared will result in a seg fault if:

- there is a bound parameter after the quoted value
- emulated prepares is on (1)
- mysql

If emulated prepares is off (0), the query fails.  This should also be considered a bug.

Reproduce code:
---------------
//test.php

//the mysql table first: create table ed (id int not null, name varchar(255) not null);

$db = new PDO('mysql:host=' . HOST . ';dbname=' . NAME, USERNAME, PASSWORD);
$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES, 1);

$search = "o'riley";

$values = array();
$sql = "select id from ed where name like " . $db->quote('%' . $search . '%');
$sth = $db->prepare($sql);
$sth->execute($values);
echo("here\n");

$values = array('id' => 1233434);
$sql = "select id from ed where name like " . $db->quote('%' . $search . '%') . " and id = :id";
$sth = $db->prepare($sql);
$sth->execute($values);
echo("there\n");


Expected result:
----------------
No errors should occur.

Should print "here\nthere\n".

Actual result:
--------------
[ed@a_machine]$ php test.php
here
Segmentation fault

I have the same issue as this bug and am posting here rather than opening a new bug report. I found that the issue is not reliant on usage of quote(), but rather the presence of escaped quotes in the SQL query string.

Tested on PHP 5.2CVS-2008-05-23(Snap)

Reproduce code:
---------------
The following URL has several extended test scripts and source, as well as the MySQL table definition/data to reproduce this bug:

http://slug.middlebury.edu/~afranco/PHP_PDO_segfault/


Expected result:
----------------
No errors should occur.


Actual result:
--------------
Here is the backtrace from running my segfault_test_short.php script:

This bug still exists in PHP 5_3. Its as simple as this to crash PDO:

$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES, 1);
$db->query("SELECT 1 FROM DUAL WHERE 'test' LIKE '\'' AND 0 > :id");

Grr, I need a break - same pattern but should not cause any parse errors etc.

$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES, 1);
$sql = "SELECT 1, 2 FROM DUAL WHERE 'test' LIKE 'O\'chaos' AND :id";
$stmt = $db->prepare($sql);
$id = 0;
$stmt->bindParam(':id', $id);
$stmt->execute();

There is two problem here:
- Unclosed quotes isn't handled correctly
- The escape support was removed
