From: stas at zend dot com Operating system: * PHP version: 5.3CVS-2008-01-25 (CVS) PHP Bug Type: JSON related Bug description: json_encode silently cuts non-UTF8 strings
Description: ------------ Right now, if json_encode sees wrong UTF-8 data, it just cuts the string in the middle, no error returned, no message produced. I think it's not a good idea to just silently cut the data. In fact, I think it is a bug caused by this code in ext/json/utf8_to_utf16.c: if (c < 0) { return UTF8_END ? the_index : UTF8_ERROR; } which inherited this bug from code published on json.org. It should be: if (c < 0) { return (c == UTF8_END) ? the_index : UTF8_ERROR; } Reproduce code: --------------- var_dump(json_encode("ab\xE0")); var_dump(json_encode("ab\xE0\"")); Expected result: ---------------- Some error message Actual result: -------------- Just: ""ab"" ""ab"" -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=43941&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 4.4): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=trysnapshot44 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=43941&r=mysqlcfg
