ext/calendar/calendar.c:426 is this:

https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/PHP-5.6/ext/calendar/calendar.c#L426

		add_assoc_string(return_value, "abbrevmonth", JEWISH_MONTH_NAME(year)[month], 1);


And month year and day would be 0 there. As far as I can see, the only issue there may be this:

#define JEWISH_MONTH_NAME(year) 	((monthsPerYear[((year)-1) % 19] == 13)?JewishMonthNameLeap:JewishMonthName)

If year is 0, it may access monthsPerYear[-1] which is not right. Would not produce any consequences though as it is used to just choose between two options, each of which would produce "" anyway. Accessing [-1] is not nice, but definitely not a security issue.

The following command also segfaults under ASAN: 

php -r "jdmonthname(6,4);"

Line 740 includes the same macro, so it's probably the same issue.:

   monthname = JEWISH_MONTH_NAME(year)[month];

The actual problem is that Julian days < 347998, which result in
invalid Jewish dates are not particularly catered to. Simply
fixing this OOB read is possible, but still would yield
nonsentical results from cal_from_jd($jd, CAL_JEWISH) wrt. the
day. Therefore it appears to be reasonable to also adjust the
day related fields.
