Description:
------------
When passing a negative number to the pg_lo_create, it will use this value as a resource and then call zend_fetch_resource2 with it, causing an invalid read.

https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/PHP-7.0/ext/pgsql/pgsql.c#L3189

I believe the issue is caused because the function accepts a mixed type data instead of only a resource here.

Reading symbols from /home/user/php-7.0/sapi/cli/php...done.
(gdb) b zend_fetch_resource2
