Description:
------------
I get a segault when talking to PayPal via SOAP.  It seems like the segfault happens AFTER the Soap call has happened, because I can usually dump the results to the screen just before the crash.  This happens on a Mac system with PHP 5.2.4 and a Linux system with 5.2.5.  I have tried 3 different ways of talking to PayPal; one using their SDK, one using straight SOAP code I wrote, and one using a SOAP wrapper library I found.  All crash the same way.  I use SOAP for tons of other things (eBay, for instance) without issues.

Reproduce code:
---------------
http://img1.boxaroo.com/images/php_soap_segv.txt

And, BTW, you do *not* need to put in your PayPal info (I have mine replaced with '---').  It still crashes in the same way whether it accepts your creds or not.



Expected result:
----------------
Should just be a dump of the return; instead you should see the segfault.

Actual result:
--------------
Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.

Hi,

We are experiencing the same problem on PHP 5.2.6 on Gentoo.

This is a real problem for us.

Regards,
Jasper

I can confirm this segmentation fault still occurs using the 5.2-200810011830 snapshot. Please reopen this bug. It's probably related to #44882 because on a patched version of PHP, it doesn't segfault.

Segmentation fault also occurs on Ubuntu 9.10 with PHP 5.2.4.

The problem is located in php-sdk/lib/PayPal/SOAP/Client.php :

function &__decodeResponse(&$response, $shift = true)

{
        ...
        // Decode to native php datatype.
        $returnArray =& $this->_decode($response); // HERE
        ...
}

The solution :

function _decode_fix($soapvalue)
{
	return parent::_decode($soapvalue);
}
function &__decodeResponse(&$response, $shift = true)
{
        ...
        // Decode to native php datatype.
        $returnArray =& $this->_decode_fix($response);
        ...
}

Note that simply replacing the "HERE" line by :

$returnArray = parent::_decode($soapvalue);

will NOT remove the segmentation fault, you have to call it from another method, like _decode_fix
