This is a common problem with variable converted internally to object and passing an inexistent property to function that expects reference.
e.g.

<?php

$data = 'test';
preg_match('//', '', $data->info);

The issue is that $data->info actually pointers to EG(error_zval_ptr) because $data is not empty, thus no object is created.
