Description:
------------
An invalid free (assigned CVE-2016-4473) may occur under certain
conditions when processing phar-compatible archives in php 5.6.22, 7.0.7
and git head:

php-7.0.7/ext/phar/phar_object.c
,----
| 4063 static int phar_extract_file(zend_bool overwrite, phar_entry_info *entry, char *dest, int dest_len, char **error) /* {{{ */
| 4064 {
| ....
| 4071     cwd_state new_state;
| ....
| 4084     new_state.cwd = (char*)emalloc(2);    // (1)
| 4085     new_state.cwd[0] = DEFAULT_SLASH;
| 4086     new_state.cwd[1] = '\0';
| 4087     new_state.cwd_length = 1;
| 4088     if (virtual_file_ex(&new_state, entry->filename, NULL, CWD_EXPAND) != 0 ||
| 4089             new_state.cwd_length <= 1) {
| ....
| 4099     }
| ....
| 4163
| 4164     if (FAILURE == php_stream_stat_path(fullpath, &ssb)) {
| 4165         if (entry->is_dir) {
| 4166             if (!php_stream_mkdir(fullpath, entry->flags & PHAR_ENT_PERM_MASK,  PHP_STREAM_MKDIR_RECURSIVE, NULL)) { // (2)
| ....
| 4169                 free(new_state.cwd);      // (3)
| ....
| 4171             }
| 4172         } else {
| 4173             if (!php_stream_mkdir(fullpath, 0777,  PHP_STREAM_MKDIR_RECURSIVE, NULL)) { // (4)
| ....
| 4176                 free(new_state.cwd);      // (5)
| ....
| 4178             }
| 4179         }
| 4180     }
| ....
| 4246 }
`----

`new_state.cwd' is initially allocated through the internal zend
allocator in (1) and is later reallocated as the file path is resolved
in `virtual_file_ex':

php-7.0.7/Zend/zend_virtual_cwd.c
,----
| 1178 CWD_API int virtual_file_ex(cwd_state *state, const char *path, verify_path_func verify_path, int use_realpath) /* {{{ */
| 1179 {
| ....
| 1336     if (verify_path) {
| ....
| 1342         tmp = erealloc(state->cwd, state->cwd_length+1);
| ....
| 1349         state->cwd = (char *) tmp;
| 1350
| 1351         memcpy(state->cwd, resolved_path, state->cwd_length+1);
| ....
| 1360     } else {
| ....
| 1362         tmp = erealloc(state->cwd, state->cwd_length+1);
| ....
| 1369         state->cwd = (char *) tmp;
| 1370
| 1371         memcpy(state->cwd, resolved_path, state->cwd_length+1);
| ....
| 1373     }
| ....
| 1379 }
`----

However, should `php_stream_mkdir' fail in (2) or (4), `cwd' is freed by
the underlying libc allocator in (3) or (5).


Test script:
---------------
mkzip.py: https://gist.github.com/dyntopia/9e54d61674ca89cd1381fbb017791e39
phar.php: https://gist.github.com/dyntopia/b7133c623bafe3ff7b7f57e38d7b2f90


Actual result:
--------------
On FreeBSD (ie. jemalloc) with mkdir() failing due to a directory
already existing as a regular file:
