Some code in pcre_get_compiled_regex_cache_ex() is not binary safe (i.e. it assumes that a NUL byte terminates the pattern), and there may be further modifications needed to php_pcre.c. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-03-13 04:19:41] requinix@php.net I assume the restriction is purely technical, so if we can lift it with PCRE2 then that's probably the right answer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2019-03-13 04:16:13] 605036592 at qq dot com hello cmb@php.net, I think "/a".chr(0)."bc/" != '/a\\0bc/', so not the same question! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
