Bug #72216 [NEW]: Return by reference with finally is not memory safe

From: nikic Operating system: PHP version: Irrelevant Package: Scripting Engine problem Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Return by reference with finally is not memory safe Description: ------------ Test script will valgrind (and show a leak). This issue is closely related to bug #72215, in that both are caused by us not computing the final return value (and backing it up) before the finally. Test script: --------------- <?php function &test() { $a = []; try { return $a[0]; } finally { $a[""] = 42; } } var_dump(test()); -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72216&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.5): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=trysnapshot55 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=72216&r=mysqlcfg
