#48445 [NEW]: Data with special chars breaks execution

From: cristianrossi dot udesc at gmail dot com Operating system: Linux debian 2.6.18-4-686 PHP version: 5.2CVS-2009-06-01 (snap) PHP Bug Type: mcrypt related Bug description: Data with special chars breaks execution Description: ------------ When data to be encrypted has some special chars the mcrypt_generic function breaks execution. Reproduce code: --------------- $wrong_data ="<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'> <root> <data>0123456789</data> </root>"; $correct_data ="<? xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'> <root> <data>0123456789</data> </root>"; //cypher $mcrypt_cypher = mcrypt_module_open(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, '', MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, ''); //initialization code: mcrypt with mcrypt_generic_init and a 256 key //trying to encrypt the correct data $cipherText_correct = mcrypt_generic($mcrypt_cypher, $correct_data); echo $cipherText_correct; //trying to encrypt the wrong data $cipherText_wrong = mcrypt_generic($mcrypt_cypher, $wrong_data); echo $cipherText_wrong; Expected result: ---------------- Expected data to be correctly encrypted given it is just a simple string. Actual result: -------------- $correct_data is encrypted correctly. (with a space after "?" -> '<? xml') $wrong_data simply breaks the execution. (without space after "?" -> '<?xml') It is worth to know the code written above is correctly initialized and wrong_data and correct_data were 2 different executions. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48445&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=fixedcvs Fixed in CVS and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=48445&r=mysqlcfg
