Description:
------------
Called ssh2_disconnect() on existing connection after successful file upload.
During execution of the destructors -> segfault
(I'm sorry for not having the debug symbols installed in the docker container)

Test script:
---------------
n/a

Expected result:
----------------
close the connection WITHOUT segfault

Actual result:
--------------
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Segfault happens during execution on CLI
 [2019-09-05 23:32 UTC] lunar dot rift at gmail dot com 
When I call ssh2_disconnect(), I am getting the following error:

Assertion failed: (session), function _libssh2_channel_free, file channel.c, line 2484.
Abort trap: 6

----------

PHP 7.2.23 and ssh2 v1.1.2 installed via Mac Ports on macOS 10.14.6.

This bug is present in PHP 7.4.3 CLI under Ubuntu 20.04 too, as reported in #79631.

You may try using ssh2_disconnect on the _SFTP handle_ before using ssh2_disconnect using the SSH2 connection handle to avoid the segfault. 

Though it's not a supported way of disconnecting but we've found this to be the only way to avoid segfaults repeatedly on our server.

Closing as duplicate of bug #79631, since that report already has
a detailed analysis.
