That was to test if the problem was with the PCRE2 code in general or if it was specifically about how ext/filter and FILTER_VALIDATE_REGEXP uses it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-11-30 21:56:29] ab@php.net @mlocati, excellent! I'll add it as a test. @requinix your snippet doesn't repro, unfortunately. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-11-30 16:54:44] requinix@php.net What happens with this? <?php $text = '{CCM:CID_2}'; echo '1'; preg_replace_callback( '/([0-9]+)/i', function ($matches) { echo $matches[1]; preg_match('/^http$/i', ''); }, $text ); echo '3'; ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-11-30 16:46:36] mlocati at gmail dot com PS: I'm on Windows, so -1073741819 is the 0xC0000005 (STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION) system error ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2018-11-30 16:41:16] mlocati at gmail dot com It took me quite some time to keep removing stuff to get to a test script as simple as possible, and here it is: <?php $text = '{CCM:CID_2}'; echo '1'; preg_replace_callback( '/([0-9]+)/i', function ($matches) { echo $matches[1]; filter_var('http', FILTER_VALIDATE_REGEXP, ['options' => ['regexp' => '/^http$/i']]); }, $text ); echo '3'; It should print '123', but it prints '1' and an infinite number of '2'. If you set $text to just a digit (eg '2'), just '12' is printed out, and PHP quits with an error level -1073741819 (I'm using a 32-bit PHP). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
