Description:
------------
As I mistakenly tried to read a very large number of bytes (1078508183)
(more than are in the file) with fread, the Site doesn't react anymore
and i get a apache.exe Task in my Tasklist consuming an average of 80%
CPU Load (with a 1300 Mhz Machine) which can't be stopped (maybe also
due to missing rights). Also the file is blocked.
Never tested this on Linux, but I think if a server does this
mistakenly several times at once the whole server enviroment would
crash.
I run Apache 2.0.48 with PHP 5.0.0b4 as Apache2 Handler on Windows 2000
SR4 on FAT32 Filesystem.
Reproduce code:
---------------
(in my case test was a textfile with the 3 Letters "AAA")
<?
$fp = fopen("test",r");
$res = fread($fp,1078508183);
echo $res
fclose($fp);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
I expected PHP to be as smart (as it is with smaller numbers for
example like 50 000) to write only 3 Bytes and output "AAA".
Actual result:
--------------
Apache Task isn't stopable and runs @ Average of 80% CPU Load
