#49445 [NEW]: Segfault on connection close
From: jake dot levitt at mailtrust dot com Operating system: CentOS 5 PHP version: 5.3.0 PHP Bug Type: IMAP related Bug description: Segfault on connection close Description: If an IMAP server closes a connection without sending a BYE command, PHP segfaults on the next IMAP command run on the mailbox resource. I noticed this while testing against an exchange server, where I was selecting a folder that doesn't exist. After 10 times it disconnected me without sending a BYE command. When this happens PHP segfaulted, which doesn't allow for the script to do any error handling. Reproduce code: --- ?php //Try testing against an exchange server that disconnects after a //certain number of bad commands $flags = '/novalidate-cert'; $host = 'secure.emailsrvr.com:143'; $username = 'notewort...@sts.com'; $password = 'webmail'; $base_imap_string = '{' . $host . $flags . '}'; $connect_string = $base_imap_string . 'INBOX'; $mailbox = imap_open($connect_string, $username, $password, 0, 3); $connect_string = $base_imap_string . 'Does not exist'; for ($i = 0; $i 10; $i++) { $reopen_success = imap_reopen($mailbox, $connect_string, 0, 3); } Expected result: imap_reopen either returns false or throws a PHP error.

#49425 [NEW]: imap_reopen() returns TRUE instead FALSE called with nonexistant mailbox
From: jake dot levitt at mailtrust dot com Operating system: CentOS 5 PHP version: 5.3.0 PHP Bug Type: IMAP related Bug description: imap_reopen() returns TRUE instead FALSE called with nonexistant mailbox Description: When calling imap_reopen() on a folder that doesn't exist, the function returns true instead of the expected result of false.

It now seems that our patch does lessen the memory leak, but does not eradicate it. We ran our test script using the patch and it seemed to work, but running the actual migration program shows that there is still a leak. Before our program would migrate ~1.5gb of mail now it migrates ~2.4gb before running out of memory. We have updated our test script to better expose the memory leak: /** * To watch memory usage use: * ps -eo pid,ppid,rss,vsize,pcpu,pmem,cmd -ww --sort=pid | grep \(memory-usage-test\)\|\(PID\) | grep -v grep */ $flags = '/novalidate-cert'; $host = 'a.host.com:143'; $username = 'a.u...@a.host.com'; $password = 'password'; $folder = 'INBOX'; $base_imap_string = '{' . $host . $flags .

Reproduce code: --- ?php $flags = '/novalidate-cert'; $host = 'mail.server.com:143'; $username = 'user'; $password = 'pass'; $folder = 'INBOX'; $base_imap_string = '{' . $host . $flags . '}'; $connect_string = $base_imap_string . $folder; $mailbox = @imap_open($connect_string, $username, $password, 0, 3); $reopen_success = imap_reopen($mailbox, $connect_string, 0, 3); $message_ids = imap_search($mailbox, ALL, SE_UID); for ($i = 0; $i 1000; $i++) { imap_body($mailbox, $message_ids[0], FT_UID | FT_PEEK); } Expected result: I would expect that memory usage as viewed by the ps command stays relatively flat. Actual result: -- Memory usage as viewed by the ps command increases over time until the script eventually dies with an out of memory error given. -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=47940edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=fixedcvs Fixed in CVS and need be documented: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=needdocs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=php4 Daylight Savings:http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=47940r=mysqlcfg
