#25103 [NEW]: Session handling that seg faults apache

From: tony at tonybibbs dot com Operating system: Linux (RedHat) PHP version: 4.3.2 PHP Bug Type: Reproducible crash Bug description: Session handling that seg faults apache Description: ------------ I have a custom php session handler that interacts with a database via PEAR::DB. I have set session.save_handler to user. I have test this using both MySQL and MS SQL Server 2000 on the backend. Running this code can kill one of the Apache process consistently. The short version of what I am doing is I authenticate my app, stick a user object in the session using $_SESSION['user'] = &$userObj; Then later I try to get that object out of the session by using $userObj = &$_SESSION['user']. To get code that reproduces this go here: http://www.tonybibbs.com/filemgmt/visit.php?lid=5 Reproduce code: --------------- http://www.tonybibbs.com/filemgmt/visit.php?lid=5 Expected result: ---------------- I would expect that on page 2 I would get an instance of the object out of the session Ok. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=25103&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (php4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=trysnapshot4 Try a CVS snapshot (php5): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=trysnapshot5 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=25103&r=gnused
