ID: 45751 Comment by: basant dot kukreja at sun dot com Reported By: basant dot kukreja at sun dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Reproducible crash Operating System: Solaris 10 PHP Version: 5.2.6 New Comment: The issue was that we are saving stack address execute_data.opline into EG(opline_ptr) in execute function in zend_vm_execute.h (line 74). EG(opline_ptr) = &EX(opline); After function execute is finished, EG(opline_ptr) is not reset to NULL. This point to previously used stack. Fix is that before we return we should set EG(opline_ptr) to NULL. Suggested Patch : --- Zend/zend_vm_execute_ORIG.h 2008-08-07 18:42:47.876727000 -0700 +++ Zend/zend_vm_execute.h 2008-08-07 18:44:40.481725000 -0700 @@ -90,6 +90,7 @@ #endif if (EX(opline)->handler(&execute_data TSRMLS_CC) > 0) { + EG(opline_ptr) = NULL; return; } Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-08-08 04:35:06] basant dot kukreja at sun dot com Description: ------------ Stack pointer &execute_data.opline (&EG(opline)) is used beyond the scope and hence crashes php with auto_preprend_file.
