If the file was too large, we ended up allocating (2 * size + 4 * size) buffers to scan for encoding. Now we limit size to 64K." Can we have this fix in PHP soon? Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2021-02-04 11:00:18] halaeiv at gmail dot com I have a quick question. If it is libmagic bug how come the bug exists in php-7.4 but not php-7.2? Both are installed via ondrej/php in Ubuntu and both packages depend on the same libmagic1. If 2 php versions depends on the same shared library and one has a bug, doesn't this mean the bug is actually not in the shared library? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
