Bug #15989: php is segfaulting when trying to read http header of a ftp.domaine.com site

From: dams@php.net Operating system: windows 2000, macosx PHP version: 4.1.2 PHP Bug Type: cURL related Bug description: php is segfaulting when trying to read http header of a ftp.domaine.com site Here is a simple code for this : <?php curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "ftp.dds.be"); // this is an example curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 1); curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 5); print "OK until now\n"; var_dump( $retour = curl_exec ($ch)); ?> When the protocol is not specified, and the host name starts with ftp., there is a conflict segfault. It seems to have a conflict where curl choose automatically ftp protocole for ftp.*.* sites, but the script ask for http header. Then php crashes. This has been found with PHP 4.1.0/4.1.1 for windows, and PHP 4.1.2/ curl 7.9.4 PHP should return an error, but not crash. Note that when specifying the protocol, (eg, "http://ftp.site.com"), it works fine. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15989&edit=1 -- Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15989&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15989&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15989&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15989&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15989&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15989&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15989&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=15989&r=submittedtwice
