PHP Bug Type: Unknown/Other Function
Bug description: json_decode returns false when leading zeros aren't escaped
with double quotes
Description:
------------
When parsing a JSON Payload containing integers or floats with leading
zeros as values which haven't been escaped using double quotes,
json_decode() returns false.
Even thought leading zeros are ( most of the times ) irrelevant for
integers, the function should at least trim the zeros out and not fail
the entire decoding process. JSON returned from some Java JSON
generators come with integers containing leading zeros and not escaped
by double quotes.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$payload = <<<payload
{
"test" : 06
}
payload;
if(!$obj = json_decode($payload)) die("Problems on JSON Parsing the
json_decode() function has returned false");
print_r($obj);
Expected result:
----------------
stdClass Object ( [test] => 6 )
Actual result:
--------------
Problems on JSON Parsing the json_decode() function has returned false
