Bug #81684 Using null coalesce assignment with $GLOBALS["x"] produces opcode error
Submitted: 2021-12-01 11:11 UTC Modified: 2021-12-05 17:37 UTC
From: rh at tfli dot co dot uk Assigned: ilutov (profile)
Status: Closed Package: Scripting Engine problem
PHP Version: 8.1.0 OS: Windows 10 (64Bit)
Private report: No CVE-ID: None
 [2021-12-01 11:11 UTC] rh at tfli dot co dot uk
Description:
------------
On PHP 8.1.0, likely following https://wiki.php.net/rfc/restrict_globals_usage, then null coalesce assignment no longer works (when used with a key on $GLOBALS).

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$GLOBALS["x"] = $GLOBALS["x"] ?? [];
var_dump($GLOBALS["x"]); // array(0){}
$GLOBALS["y"] ??= []; // Fatal error: Invalid opcode 23/1/0. in /in/Y4146 on line 5
echo "Done."

Expected result:
----------------
The script outputs the first var_dump (as it does presently) and then echoes Done.

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Invalid opcode 23/1/0. in /in/Y4146 on line 5

Right: <https://3v4l.org/Y4146>.  Happens also with 8.1.0 (which
is not yet available on 3v4l.org).

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has already been fixed
in the latest released version of PHP, which you can download at
http://www.php.net/downloads.php

Thanks for the report! Should be fixed in the upcoming PHP 8.1.2 release.
