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 this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=48445&edit=1
