Bug #68840 [NEW]: Null pointer deference

From: bugreports at internot dot info Operating system: Linux Ubuntu 14.04 PHP version: master-Git-2015-01-15 (Git) Package: *General Issues Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Null pointer deference Description: ------------ Hi, In /main/main.c: 381 tmp_value = (ini_entry->orig_value ? ini_entry->orig_value->val : NULL ); 382 tmp_value_length = (int)ini_entry->orig_value->len; That check on L381, "ini_entry->orig_value ? ini_entry->orig_value->val : NULL", implys that it ms possible for ini_entry->orig_value to be NULL. However, the next line, it is dereferenced anyways. Either the test is unneeded, or a test is needed for L382.
