Bug #77387 Recursion detection broken when printing GLOBALS
Submitted: 2018-12-31 10:40 UTC Modified: 2018-12-31 14:53 UTC
From: sjon at hortensius dot net Assigned:
Status: Closed Package: Scripting Engine problem
PHP Version: 7.3.0 OS: archlinux
Private report: No CVE-ID: None
 [2018-12-31 10:40 UTC] sjon at hortensius dot net
Description:
------------
I found this while going through https://3v4l.org/bughunt/7.3.0/7.2.13+7.2.12. Previously when printing _GLOBALS - recursion was detected and prevented. This seems broken

Test script:
---------------
See https://3v4l.org/AdLgJ

print_r($GLOBALS);

Expected result:
----------------
Array ( ... ) [GLOBALS] => Array *RECURSION* )

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 31461376 bytes) in /in/AdLgJ on line 3

Process exited with code 255.

Highly appreciated – thanks!

This bug is caused by refactoring the recursion protection[1].
The Z_REFCOUNTED_P() check[2] fails for $GLOBALS, so the recursion
protection is not applied.

Thanks! I've found another problem - very likely related:

https://3v4l.org/LUq3k

this segfaults, while previously recursion was properly detected
