Many streaming deflate applications rely on this behavior (example: websocket permessage-deflate extension https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-hybi-permessage-compression-28#section-7.2.1) I believe this is caused by the output buffer not being checked as required to ensure complete buffer flush. This can be resolved for all cases I can find by increasing the out_size in deflate_add by 64 bytes prior to string allocation. The correct solution would be to check the status and ctx->avail_out to see if deflate ran out of buffer space. I would like to see both solutions as bumping the buffer up by 64 bytes right away yields better compression results. This was tested with zlib 1.2.8. Test script: --------------- <?php $deflateContext = deflate_init(ZLIB_ENCODING_RAW); $deflated = deflate_add( $deflateContext, hex2bin("255044462d312e320a25c7ec8fa20a362030206f626a0a3c3c2f4c656e6774682037203020522f46696c746572202f466c6174654465636f64653e3e0a737472"), ZLIB_SYNC_FLUSH ); $deflated = deflate_add( $deflateContext, hex2bin("65616d0a789c7d53c16ed43010bde7c037f85824766a7bc6767c2ca8a00a016a1b2edcb2dbecaed1266937d98afe3d6327363794439437e3f17b6f5e242821e3"), ZLIB_SYNC_FLUSH ); $deflated = deflate_add( $deflateContext, hex2bin("b3be777df5525d3f90384cd58b50a9945fbb5e7c6cb8c89fca8156c688665f2de794504a81f75658a7c1d54a347d7575fb6e17ba617edffcae9c84da3aee6c9e"), ZLIB_SYNC_FLUSH ); // should be 0000ffff echo bin2hex(substr($deflated, strlen($deflated) - 4)) . "\n"; Expected result: ---------------- 0000ffff Actual result: -------------- 9e000000 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73373&edit=1
