Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc. If the script requires a 
database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates 
all necessary tables, stored procedures etc.

Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

Aswell as a backtrace would help give some insight on the matter for the maintainer

run 'php -v' on CLI.

ALERT - canary mismatch on efree() - heap overflow detected (attacker 
'REMOTE_ADDR not set', file 'unknown')

Install php v5.2.10 by FreeBSD ports.
Using options are 'CLI, CGI, APACHE, SUHOSIN, MULTIBYTE, IPV6, MAILHEAD, 
REDIRECT, DISCARD, FASTCGI, PATHINFO'

I checked extension.ini and remove some lines.

#extension=oci8.so
#extension=recode.so
#extension=pdo_oci.so

and then works fine.

I found a solution here and it works for me!

http://www.nabble.com/-Bug-41297--NEW:-PHP-Suhosin-Patch-creates-a-problem-with-mssql_query%28%29-when-selecting-a-smalldatetime-field-td17693263.html

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use the default configuration of PHP with the mssql-extension.
2. create a sql-statement that selects a smalldatetimevalue from a MSSQL-Database or use the Script at the end of this report.
3. the Script dies in the mssql_query()-function

Solution:
I found the following solution that works for me:
1. Open /etc/php.ini
2. "Decomment" the line "mssql.datetimeconvert = On" and change it to "mssql.datetimeconvert = Off"
3. Restart Apache
4. The Problem dissappears

nick at ihighteam dot com's solution works.

I have a rather large dataset I am iterating through and ran into this issue. I can confirm that Nicks solution is a suitable workaround.

Thanks Nick!
