It could be safety.

If this issue affects phpdbg only, it wouldn't be a security issue.

The problem is that the lexer doesn't properly recognize the end
of the input, and calculates yyleng based on YYCURSOR[1], which
may be zero.  It seems to me that this also may result in a memory
corruption, since entering the string on the prompt again, leads
to a crash (tested on Windows).

This problem. It may be a Integer Overflow problem. It seems to affect phpdbg only. I suggest you repair it.

The fix has been reverted from PHP-7.4 for now, because it is
incompatible with re2c 0.13.5.

After further consideration, I see no point in working around
missing support for default rules in very old re2c versions.
After all, the segfault only occurs for erroneous input, so
shouldn't be a real issue in practice anyway, what is confirmed by
the age of this ticket with no further input.

So, for the record, this is fixed as of PHP 8.0.0.

The bugfix had to be reverted from all branches, because we cannot
yet require re2c 0.13.7 even for PHP 8.0 due to re2c 0.13.5 being
the default on CentOS 7.
