See also bug #48408 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-21 21:17:25] iddekingej at lycos dot com I have some more information about this bug: THis bug happens in the following situation: $l_a->someMethod(other_fy()) When in "other_fy()" a exception is raised this bug occurs. This bug doesn't happen when calling a normal function e.g. someMethod(other_fy()) This bug happens in apache as module and in the CLI. (only in the cli there is no visible clue that something did go wrong). In the function ZEND_HANDLE_EXCEPTION_SPEC_HANDLER (zend_vm_execute.h). I placed some debug output (EX(fbc)->common.function_name and EG(arg_types_stack).top) before: while (EX(fbc)) { EX(called_scope) = (zend_class_entry*)zend_ptr_stack_pop(&EG(arg_types_stack)); if (EX(object)) { and after zend_object_store_ctor_failed(EX(object) TSRMLS_CC); } } zval_ptr_dtor(&EX(object)); } After the exception is raised this function is called. The first time it is called, the variable fbc=NULL and arg_types_stack.top =3. Because EX(fbc)=NULL the while loop is skipped. When this function is called the second time and fbc is not null(Contains data from the method "check") , and arg_type_stack.top is still 3. After the while loop arg_type_stack.top=-3, which is afcourse wrong . Because of this some memory corruption occurs. So maybe when calling a method and a expception is raised when the parameters are calculated the variable "fbc" is not set correctly or there is a missing "zend_ptr_stack_3_push(&EG(arg_types_stack), EX(fbc), EX(object), EX(called_scope));" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-21 11:03:40] lbarn...@php.net Verified with gcc 4.3.3 with -O2 on 5.2 and 5.3.

(and when you give feedback, change the status to 'Open'..) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-05-11 20:37:48] iddekingej at lycos dot com Thanks, but the latest snapshot din't fix the problem. I managed to debug apache and php and found the following: The field alloc_globals->mm_heap->reserve_size is (wrongly) overwritten with some address while freeing memory. This value contains therefore a large number. Next, in zend_mm_shutdown the following code is executed if (heap->reserve_size) { heap->reserve = _zend_mm_alloc_int(heap, heap->reserve_size ZEND_FILE_LINE_CC ZEND_FILE_LINE_EMPTY_CC); } This failed because reserve_size contains a very large number. The corruption of "alloc_globals->mm_heap->reserve_size" happens in the function _zend_mm_free_int.This function is called from "shutdown_executor" about line 327. That is "zend_ptr_stack_destroy(&EG(arg_types_stack));" In the function _zend_mm_free_int a local var mm_block is loaded with "mm_block = ZEND_MM_HEADER_OF(p);" This header contains size=0,next=0 (hmm size=0 sounds wrong). The value in "alloc_globals->mm_heap->reserve_size" is corrupted later on at the line "*cache = (zend_mm_free_block*)mm_block;" (about line 1968). So I guess that "cache" contains a wrong pointer. This is as far as I could debug php. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
