From: inf3rno dot hu at gmail dot com Operating system: Windows XP PHP version: 5.2.10 PHP Bug Type: PCRE related Bug description: Bug in recursive regex processing
Description: ------------ I developed a recursive regex pattern for compile template patterns. During the tests I found this bug. I managed to restrict it to the following piece of code. The count of the numbers, and every character (\n too) counts. So if I have 11+ characters long string in the 'y'-s block, then it's buggy, but by 10- character long strings it works fine. I hope it's a real bug, and not a damage in my computer. :-) Reproduce code: --------------- $pattern='%.*?(?:([a-z])(?:.*?(?:(?R).*?)*?\1)?|$)%sD'; $test=' x 0123456789 x y 01234567890 y'; preg_match_all($pattern,$test,$matches,PREG_SET_ORDER); var_dump($matches); Expected result: ---------------- array(3) { [0]=> array(2) { [0]=> string(18) " x 0123456789 x" [1]=> string(1) "x" } [1]=> array(2) { [0]=> string(19) " y 01234567890 y" [1]=> string(1) "y" } [2]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(0) "" } } Actual result: -------------- array(0) { } -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49333&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=trysnapshot52 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in SVN: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=fixed Fixed in SVN and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=49333&r=mysqlcfg
