 Bug Type:         Session related
 Operating System: *
 PHP Version:      5CVS-2004-02-17
 New Comment:

I have confirmed the same problem under PHP 4.2.2 with class objects
that reference each other.  As a workaround, I was able to successfully
store and retrieve serialized versions of my objects.  Instead of:

session_start();
$_SESSION['myobj'] =& new Class_With_Obj_Refs();
session_write_close();

I have:

session_start();
$myobj =& new Class_With_Obj_Refs();
// do stuff
$_SESSION['myobj'] = serialize($myobj);
session_write_close();

When using the stored object from another page:

session_start();
$myobj = unserialize($_SESSION['myobj']);
session_write_close();

Hope this is helpful to others who still use PHP 4.x.

Nevermind, could reproduce. Only happens without --enable-debug! Here's
the backtrace:

Sorry, but when I add --enable-debug to my configure the bug
"dissapeared", the example script worked fine. The crashe takes place
only in the debugless version, it's backtrace hardly can help you:

Program terminated with signal 10, Bus error.
.//usr/local/lib/php/20020429/templates.so: No such file or directory.
#0  0x2860f780 in ?? () from /usr/local/libexec/apache/libphp5.so

#6  0x805d84d in standalone_main ()
#7  0x805dcab in main ()
#8  0x804fc39 in _start ()

It is a bad sign, it may mean buffer overflow anywhere in the program,
i suppose. It may be difficult to find the bug. I'm ready to provide
any help in catching it...

Description:
------------
PHP crashes on session_start() if object "foo" references to object
"bar" and both "foo" and "bar" are put into session explicitly each
into it's element.

The example below will work if we comment line:
$_SESSION['bar'] = $bar;
the only one "foo" is put to session explicitly and "bar" is also put,
but as a member of "foo".

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
class foo {
        public $bar = NULL;
}
class bar {}
//=============================[]
        $foo = new foo();
        $bar = new bar();
        $foo->bar = $bar;
        session_start();
        $_SESSION['foo'] = $foo;
        $_SESSION['bar'] = $bar;        // it will be all right, if we comment this

        session_write_close();
        session_start();        // crashing here
        echo "OK";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
OK

Actual result:
--------------
In browser:
"The page cannot be displayed"

In /var/log/httpd-error.log:
[Sun Feb 15 21:21:22 2004] [notice] child pid 230 exit signal
Segmentation fault (11)
