Bug #31918 unlink($file) permission denied, when php_check_syntax($file) fails
Submitted: 2005-02-10 20:11 UTC Modified: 2005-04-06 16:22 UTC

PHP Version: 5.* OS: *
Private report: No CVE-ID: None

Description:
------------
In order to load custom functions I write them to temporary file, check syntax and load only if syntax correct. When syntax validates, everything is fine. When syntax is incorrect, I am unable to delete the created temporary file.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$function = '<?php function test1(){ $x = 1; } ?>';
$file = tempnam("c:", "scr");
$handle = fopen($file, "w+");
fwrite($handle, $function);
if (!php_check_syntax($file)) {
    echo "syntax error - ";
} else {
    echo "syntax ok - ";
}
if (fclose($handle)) {
    echo "closed - ";
} else {
    echo "not closed - ";
}
if (unlink($file)) {
    echo "deleted";
} else {
    echo "not deleted";
}

Expected result:
----------------
syntax error - closed - deleted

Actual result:
--------------
syntax error - closed -
Warning: Unknown: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0
not deleted

This happens because of this, found in main/main.c:1746-1755

zend_try {
  op_array = zend_compile_file(file, ZEND_INCLUDE...
  zend_destroy_file_handle(file TSRMLS_CC);
...
} zend_end_try

The zend_destroy_file_handle() is never called if there are any parse errors in the file as zend_compile_file() throw a zend_bailout().

After extensive code review it was determined that it would take too many engine hacks to make it work properly and the function was removed.
