Bundled libxmlrpc-epi is good http://git.php.net/?p=pecl/networking/xmlrpc.git;a=blob;f=libxmlrpc/xml_element.c;h=16787593516d492fcf720b0d3eea22934bae02f0;hb=refs/heads/master#l279 but this version on SourceForge does https://sourceforge.net/p/xmlrpc-epi/git/ci/master/tree/src/xml_element.c#l290 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-12-28 20:17:43] giunta dot gaetano at gmail dot com Description: ------------ Function xmlrpc_encode and xmlrpc_encode_request do encode all characters above 127 to their numeric entity representation, eg: chr(129) => '&#129;' However there seems to be a bug for characters between 200 and 209 - for those the numeric entities generated are '&#20;' to '&#29;'. The code in the source library, file 'xml_element.c' seems to have a bug in function create_xml_escape. The same bug would apply for characters 100 to 109, however that does not happen because those characters are not encoded as entities in the first place. Test script: --------------- echo xmlrpc_encode(chr(199).chr(200).chr(209).chr(210); Expected result: ---------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><params><param><value><string>&#199;&#200;&#209;&#210;</string></value></param></params> Actual result: -------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><params><param><value><string>&#199;&#20;&#29;&#210;</string></value></param></params> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=80559&edit=1
