Bug #52827 cURL leaks handle and causes assertion error (CURLOPT_STDERR)
Submitted: 2010-09-13 16:55 UTC Modified: 2010-09-14 12:59 UTC
From: cataphract@php.net Assigned: aharvey (profile)
Status: Closed Package: cURL related
PHP Version: 5.3.3 OS: Debian Lenny x64; Windows 7 x64
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
curl_setopt, when given a stream with CURLOPT_STDERR, stores the zval* and increments both the refcount of the zval* and of the resource.

Only the refcount of the zval should be incremented.

Additionally, due to a flaw in the streams API, this leak results in an assertion error. The reason is that on shutdown the unexposed/leaked resources are destroyed in reverse order, so the encapsulated STDIO stream is destroyed first and when the TEMP stream is destroyed, it then tries to close the encapsulated STDIO steam again. I will submit this as a separate bug report.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$s = fopen('php://temp/maxmemory=1024','wb+');

/* force conversion of inner stream to STDIO.
 * This is not necessary in Windows because the
 * cast to a FILE* handle in curl_setopt already
 * forces the conversion in that platform. The
 * reason for this conversion is that the memory
 * stream has an ugly but working mechanism to
 * prevent being double freed when it's encapsulated,
 * while STDIO streams don't. */
$i = 0;
while ($i++ < 5000) {
fwrite($s, str_repeat('a',1024));
}
$handle=curl_init('http://www.example.com');
curl_setopt($handle, CURLOPT_STDERR, $s);

Expected result:
----------------
No output.

Actual result:
--------------
