Bug #61156 [NEW]: Segfault when using get_defined_constants(true)

From: Operating system: openSUSE 11.4 PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Reproducible crash Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Segfault when using get_defined_constants(true) Description: ------------ ATTN: This is a bug in php verison 5.3.5 !! I do realize that this is about an earlier version, but I have no available environments on which i could simply upgrade. So consider this bug report as a notification. It can be closed if not considered a valid report. We resolved our issue by circumventing use of the categorization of get_defined_constants. The function get_defined_constants(true) causes a client segfault ([Tue Feb 21 16:18:24 2012] [notice] child pid 12564 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)) There are some references to this issue occurring ie. #51788. In that particular case however, the issue seemed to have been caused by suhosin. My installation is running native php2 engine v2.3.0. When using get_defined_constants() (without the categorization parameter) there is no problem.
