Unfortunately you are not using a current version of PHP -- the problem might already be fixed. Please download a new PHP version from http://www.php.net/downloads.php If you are able to reproduce the bug with one of the latest versions of PHP, please change the PHP version on this bug report to the version you tested and change the status back to "Open". Again, thank you for your continued support of PHP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-02-28 01:34:51] geoffdown at fastmail dot net Description: ------------ I was able to reproduce this on PHP4.4.9cli (came with the OS) and Macports PHP5.6 (latest version and latest cURL). Fetching multiple URLs, if one fetch times out because the name lookup gives a SERVFAIL (so not an NXDOMAIN) then a malloc error is thrown a few fetches afterwards - it varies, but within 50 I think. The precise point in the fetch function at which it throws the error may vary between PHP4 and 5 - the '1234567' count output should help spot where. Test script: --------------- <?php function doRequest($method, $url, $referer, $agent, $timeout, $vars){ $ch=curl_init(); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url); if ($referer != "") { curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, $referer); } curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, $agent); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, Array('Cache-Control: no-cache','Connection: close')); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION,0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS,5); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, $timeout); if ($method == 'POST') { curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $vars); } if (substr($url, 0, 5) == "https") { curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, 0); curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, 0); } echo '4'; $data = curl_exec($ch); echo '5'; curl_close($ch); echo '6'; return $data; } $urls=array('http://catiisleri.com/index.php'); $urls=array_merge($urls,array_fill(1,400,'http://php.net/?sorryimdebuggingabugincurl')); $agent='Mozilla/4.0 (Windows; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)'; $timeout=15; $datacount=0; // echo memory_get_usage(), "\n"; //uncomment for PHP5 for($i=0;$i<count($urls);$i++){ echo '1'; $url=$urls[$i].rand(0,10000); echo '2 '; $referer=$url; // echo memory_get_usage(); //uncomment for PHP5 echo " $datacount $url $i\n"; echo '3'; $res=doRequest('GET', $url, $referer, $agent, $timeout, $post); $datacount=$datacount+strlen($res); echo "7\n"; } //next url unset($res); unset($referer); // echo memory_get_usage(), "\n"; //uncomment for PHP5 ?> Expected result: ---------------- Finish fetching all URLs with no errors. In the test script output, the number before the URL is the cumulative amount of data fetched so far and the number following is the number of URLs fetched so far. In the PHP5 version, memory_get_usage() is also shown.
