#49744 [NEW]: Multi-line comment at EOF causes no output

From: michael dot cordover+php at gmail dot com Operating system: Linux PHP version: 5.2.11 PHP Bug Type: Reproducible crash Bug description: Multi-line comment at EOF causes no output Description: ------------ An unterminated multi-line comment (i.e. /* without */) that runs to the end of the file causes the parser to stop upon encountering certain functions (phpinfo() and trigger_error() verified; others not checked). This behaviour did not occur in 5.2.5 but does occur in 5.2.10 Environment: PHP Version 5.2.10 FreeBSD [host-removed] 6.2-RELEASE-p12 FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE-p12 #3: Tue Apr 14 20:41:44 UTC 2009 root@[host-removed]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/SERVER i386 Build Date Jul 2 2009 15:29:12 Configure Command './configure' Server API Apache PHP API 20041225 PHP Extension 20060613 Zend Extension 220060519 Apache Version Apache Apache Release 10339100 Apache API Version 19990320 Reproduce code: --------------- <?php echo 'Test'; if (false) { phpinfo(); } /* ?> Expected result: ---------------- HTTP 200 OK HEAD Associated default PHP headers (Date, Connection, Proxy-Connection, Content-Type, Server, X-Powered-By) Body content 'Test' (content-length 4) This result is obtained by removing the block comment opener (/*) or by closing the block comment, even if closed AFTER ?> Actual result: -------------- HTTP 500 Internal Server Error in HEAD Default PHP headers (Date, Connection, Proxy-Connection, Date, Content-Type, Server, X-Powered-By) No output (content-length 0) No error logged by Apache Apache does not load ErrorDocument 500 I am unfortunately not in a position to generate a backtrace (shared hosting). -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49744&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49744&r=mysqlcfg
