Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51725&edit=1 ID: 51725 Patch added by: mike@php.net Reported by: geissert@php.net Summary: xmlrpc_get_type() returns true on invalid dates Status: Verified Type: Bug Package: XMLRPC-EPI related Operating System: linux/kfreebsd ia64/x86_64 PHP Version: 5.3.2 New Comment: The following patch has been added/updated: Patch Name: php_parse_date-return-on-parse-error Revision: 1273656982 URL: http://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug=51725&patch=php_parse_date-return-on-parse-error&revision=1273656982 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-12 11:11:53] mike@php.net The following patch has been added/updated: Patch Name: php_parse_date-return-on-parse-error Revision: 1273655513 URL: http://bugs.php.net/patch-display.php?bug=51725&patch=php_parse_date-return-on-parse-error&revision=1273655513 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-03 15:32:16] iliaa@php.net IT happens on 64bit systems only. The reason has to do with date extension, which is used to validate the date string (on 64 bit machines this results in a very small negative #), not -1 and thus passed validation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-03 14:23:18] felipe@php.net (I tested on 32bit though) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-03 14:20:36] felipe@php.net I cannot reproduce it on Linux using: libexpat1-dev --- 2.0.1-4+lenny3 libxml2-dev --- 2.7.3.dfsg-2.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-05-03 05:40:35] geissert@php.net Description: ------------ ext/xmlrpc/tests/bug42189.phpt fails consistently on 64 bits architectures such as ia64 and x86_64. I modified the test a bit to show what's going on. From a quick look at the code it appears to be a bug in the XMLRPC-EPI lib and not in the module itself. Test script: --------------- <?php $a = '~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~'; $ok = xmlrpc_set_type($a, 'datetime'); var_dump($ok); if ($ok) echo xmlrpc_encode($a); echo "Done\n"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- bool(false) Done Actual result: -------------- bool(true) <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <params> <param> <value> <dateTime.iso8601>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</dateTime.iso8601> </value> </param> </params> Done ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51725&edit=1
