Package: php5-auth-pam
Version: 0.4-10

I have installed package 'php5-auth-pam' and then used the test script included 
in the package to check if the new PHP function pam_auth() is working properly. 
The content of my test script 'pam_auth.php' is:

<?php
$username = 'test';
$password = 'secret';
$error = '';

echo "\n\n";

if (pam_auth($username, $password, &$error)) {
        echo "Yeah baby, we're authenticated!";
} else {
        echo $error;
}
?>

If I call function pam_auth() with an invalid username/passwd, the test script 
is execute properly.

If I call function pam_auth() with a valid username/passwd, the script is 
terminated prematurely and a heap overflow error is logged into 
'/var/log/apache2/error.log'.

Here is an excerpt from apache error log file [I have first restarted apache 
and then called the script 'pam_auth.php']:
