Description:
------------
Running the test script with asan built, we found that it crashed with 2 errors:
1. AddressSanitizer: memcpy-param-overlap
2. AddressSanitizer: attempting free on address which was not malloc()-ed

We believe the root cause is the same.

The php version is PHP 8.0.0-dev (cli) (built: Jan 31 2020 21:52:09) ( NTS ), master branch of git.

The script is run by "php -f poc.php". The script is reduced by C-reduced so that it might look a little messy.

Here's the stack dump of memcpy overlap:
===

==4309==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: memcpy-param-overlap: memory ranges [0x7f1a2165cf40,0x7f1a2165cfc0) and [0x7f1a2165cf08, 0x7f1a2165cf88) overlap

Hi, 

Could you identify the reason that why this is not related to security? Since these memory corruption issues are severe issues from a security prospective. Your help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Got it. Thanks!

php-fuzzer-execute -minimize_crash=1 produced the following reduction:

<?set_error_handler(function(){unset($GLOBALS);})[(($GLOBALS=$b))];

Or for our sake:

<?php
set_error_handler(function() {
    unset($GLOBALS);
});
$GLOBALS = $undef;

Root cause here is pretty similar to bug #78598, but a slightly different situation.

We fetch $GLOBALS in FETCH_W, and then emit undef var notice in ASSIGN op2 fetch, which invalidates our reference to $GLOBALS. This is probably going to be even trickier to fix...
