New Comment:
But we are not accesing OneClass::foo. This access is allowed beacause of the
extends,we should not have access to use $this->object->foo();
$this is an instance of OneClass (it extends AnotherClass) but $this->object
(we
load it with DI) is an instance of AnotherClass. foo is protected here and we
are
accesing as a public method.

Access is granted on a class, not instance basis. This is by design.

Description:
------------
This code works, but it shouldn't, because AnotherClass::foo is protected.
It works only if "OneClass" extends "AnotherClass". If we dont't extends
"OneClass" with "AnotherClass" (in this example we don't need it) we will see
the
normal error:
Fatal error: Call to protected method AnotherClass::foo() from context
'OneClass'
Test script:
---------------
class AnotherClass {
protected function foo() {
return "bar";
}
}
class OneClass extends AnotherClass {
private $object;
public function __construct(AnotherClass $object) {
$this->object = $object;
}
public function myFunction() {
return $this->object->foo();
}
}
$obj = new OneClass(new AnotherClass());
echo $obj->myFunction();
Expected result:
----------------
Fatal error: Call to protected method AnotherClass::foo() from context
'OneClass'
Actual result:
--------------
"bar" (without Fatal error)
