Bug #51725 xmlrpc_get_type() returns true on invalid dates
Submitted: 2010-05-03 05:40 UTC Modified: 2010-05-12 11:39 UTC
From: geissert@php.net Assigned: mike (profile)
Status: Closed Package: XMLRPC-EPI related
PHP Version: 5.3.2 OS: linux/kfreebsd ia64/x86_64
Private report: No CVE-ID: None
 [2010-05-03 05:40 UTC] geissert@php.net
Description:
------------
ext/xmlrpc/tests/bug42189.phpt fails consistently on 64 bits architectures such as ia64 and x86_64.

I modified the test a bit to show what's going on. From a quick look at the code it appears to be a bug in the XMLRPC-EPI lib and not in the module itself.


Test script:
---------------
<?php
$a = '~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~';
$ok = xmlrpc_set_type($a, 'datetime');
var_dump($ok);

if ($ok)
    echo xmlrpc_encode($a);

echo "Done\n";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)
Done


Actual result:
--------------
bool(true)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<params>
<param>
 <value>
  <dateTime.iso8601>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</dateTime.iso8601>
 </value>
</param>
</params>
Done

I cannot reproduce it on Linux using:
libexpat1-dev  --- 2.0.1-4+lenny3
libxml2-dev    --- 2.7.3.dfsg-2.1

(I tested on 32bit though)

IT happens on 64bit systems only. The reason has to do with date extension, which 
is used to validate the date string (on 64 bit machines this results in a very 
small negative #), not -1 and thus passed validation.
