#44031 [NEW]: vprint treats private object elements as array elements

From: m dot beyer5 at gmx dot de Operating system: Debian Linux PHP version: 5.2.5 PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description: vprint treats private object elements as array elements Description: ------------ If an object is supplied instead of an array, v(s)printf takes the internal object elements as elements despite of its visibility. This is not only quite annoying but could be a security issue as well. Reproduce code: --------------- class foo { private $x = 1; private $y = 2; } $array = new foo; vprintf('%s < %s',$array); Expected result: ---------------- An E_WARNING should be triggered. Alternatively, vprintf could take an object instantiating or extending ArrayObject and behave according to the objects functions. Actual result: -------------- vprintf prints: 1 < 2 -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44031&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44031&r=mysqlcfg
