Description:
------------
When using zip_entry_read to decompress a zip entry containing a null byte, the function only returns data up to the first null byte in the decompressed file.  Bug does not occur on PHP 5.1.2 for Windows XP.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
dl("zip.so");
// test.zip contains one file with a null byte in the middle
$zipfile = zip_open("onejpg.zip");
$zipentry = zip_read($zipfile);
zip_entry_open($zipfile, $zipentry);

$content = zip_entry_read($zipentry, zip_entry_filesize($zipentry));
print "filesize: ".filesize("onejpg.jpg")."\n";
print "variable: ";
var_dump($content);

zip_entry_close($zipentry);
zip_close($zipfile);

?>


Expected result:
----------------
var_dump should show a string with the same length as the file size.

To download onejpg.zip and onejpg.jpg, go here:
http://www.somacon.com/p258.php
http://www.somacon.com/p257.php

Actual result:
--------------
var_dump only shows length 4, which is the length up to the null byte.

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a backtrace to see what is happening behind the scenes. To
find out how to generate a backtrace, please read
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php for *NIX and
http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace-win32.php for Win32

Once you have generated a backtrace, please submit it to this bug
report and change the status back to "Open". Thank you for helping
us make PHP better.

Which version(s) of the zip package do you use?

Sorry for the previous comment, a wrong snippet was selected.

My question is only: which version(s) of the zip package do you use?

Thank you for taking the time to report a problem with PHP.
Unfortunately you are not using a current version of PHP -- 
the problem might already be fixed. Please download a new
PHP version from http://www.php.net/downloads.php

If you are able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest
versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report
to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open".
Again, thank you for your continued support of PHP.

I cannot reproduce your problen with the latest Zip release. Your zip works with php 4.4 and 5.1.x. I can read and extract the image.

I also recommend to use the new API with php 5.1+. It is more efficient and you can extract directly to the disk.

You can fetch the latest release from the PECL site:
http://pecl.php.net/package/zip

If you still have troubles, please reopen this bug.

The version of pecl-zip seems to be 1.2.1 based on the Makefile in the ports directory.  I'd prefer not to upgrade to PHP 5.1 at this time, and I am extracting the zip contents into a database, so it has to happen in memory. I'll try the latest PECL zip package.

Just noticed the changelog for pecl-zip, and this bug has been fixed since version 1.2.3 -- "#7214, use binary safe string as return value". Sorry for the trouble.

Confirmed.  After updating zip.so to the latest 1.3.1 by running pkg_add for gnu-autoconf, gnu-automake, and gnu-libtool, adding a symbolic link "autoconf" to /usr/local/bin/autoconf529, and then running "pear install http://pecl.php.net/get/zip-1.3.1.tgz", the error went away.
