PHP Bug Type: Reproducible crash
Bug description: Bad URL with include causes apache spawns, leading to crash
Description:
------------
When using the include() function that includes an
improper URL AND a variable, PHP does not return an
error, instead spawns instance after instance of httpd
creating server hault.
The include function that produced this is something
like the following...
<?php require('http://noeljackson/?template=/templates/
lastFive.tmpl.php?start='.$_GET['start']); ?>
The problem with the URL is a & after .tmpl.php instead
of a &
Try it in a PHP document, ANY, and it will create many,
many, many instances of httpd, resulting eventually in a
server hault.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
require('http://noeljackson/?template=/templates/lastFive.tmpl.php?start='.$_GET['start']);
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Return an error.
Actual result:
--------------
Spawning of httpd creating an eventual server hault.
