Ilia, I reverted the PHP4 version of your patch to fix this. It seems to be fine in PHP5, but in PHP4 it is causing a segfault. Could you have another look? See the backtrace in the commit message at: http://cvs.php.net/php-src/main/php_variables.c?onb=1.45.2 Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-24 20:50:45] [EMAIL PROTECTED] This bug has been fixed in CVS. Snapshots of the sources are packaged every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-24 16:25:15] ast at gmx dot ch Your reproduce script does not describe this bug. Your script describes a Server -> Browser issue. This bug is about a Browser -> Server issue. The browser sends a Cookie HTTP header with its request to the server. The Cookie HTTP request header lists the cookies in the right order. Cookies with more specific paths precede cookies with less specific paths in the header string. PHP populates the superglobal $_COOKIE with the wrong values when reading/evaluating the Cookie HTTP header. This The following reproduce script shows the PHP bug. Please place it into document_root / test. <?php /* This script has to be executed in document_root/test/ or deeper */ /* set the first cookie with path '/' */ if (!isset($_COOKIE['TestCookie'])) { setcookie("TestCookie", "Value1", time()+3600, "/"); header("Location: {$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}"); exit(); } /* * set second cookie, with a more specific path, actually, the order in which the cookies are set * is irrelevant */ if (!strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_COOKIE'], 'Value2')) { setcookie("TestCookie", "Value2", time()+3600, "/test"); header("Location: {$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}"); exit(); } echo '$_COOKIE[\'TestCookie\'] should have the value \'Value2\' because it\'s the value of the cookie with the more specific path.<pre>'; var_dump($_COOKIE); echo '</pre><br>'; echo '$_SERVER[\'HTTP_COOKIE\'] lists the cookies in the correct order, Value2 before Value1. It conforms to RFC 2965.<pre>'; var_dump($_SERVER['HTTP_COOKIE']); echo '</pre>'; ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-24 14:01:21] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reproduce script: <?php setcookie("TestCookie", "Value1", time()+3600, "/test/"); setcookie("TestCookie", "Value2", time()+3600, "/"); if (!isset($_COOKIE['TestCookie'])) { header("Location: {$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']}"); exit(); } echo '<pre>'; var_dump($_COOKIE); var_dump($_SERVER['HTTP_COOKIE']); echo '</pre>'; ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-24 03:21:37] ast at gmx dot ch Here is a fix for my application. /** * Fix the superglobal $_COOKIE to conform with RFC 2965 * * We don't use $_COOKIE[$cookiename], because it doesn't conform to RFC 2965 (the * cookie standard), i.e. in $_COOKIE, we don't get the cookie with the most specific path for * a given cookie name, we get the cookie with the least specific cookie path. * This function does it exactly the other way around to conform with the RFC. * * This function reevaluates the HTTP Cookie header and populates $_COOKIE with the correct * cookies. * * @static */ function fixCookieVars() { if (isset($_SERVER['HTTP_COOKIE']) && !empty($_SERVER['HTTP_COOKIE'])) { $allCookies = explode(';', $_SERVER['HTTP_COOKIE']); /* * Get rid of less specific cookies if multiple cookies with the same NAME * are present. Do this by going from left/first cookie to right/last cookie. */ /* Reset the $_COOKIE array */ $_COOKIE = array(); /* Repopulate it, but now correctly */ foreach ($allCookies as $cookie) { /* Split NAME [=VALUE], value is optional */ $cookie = explode('=', $cookie); $key = preg_replace('|\s|', '', $cookie[0]); $value = isset($cookie[1]) ? $cookie[1] : ''; if (!isset($_COOKIE[$key])) { $_COOKIE[$key] = $value; } } } } } ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-24 00:43:04] ast at gmx dot ch the bug report that was closed as bogus (sorry, forgot to add the link. originally, i wanted to add a comment there, but you can't add comments to bugs that are marked as "bogus". http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=18337 obviously, this isn't "bogus", as php doesn't comply with the RFC 2965 (and all common browsers comply with this RFC concerning the order of the cookies). How to reproduce: See Example 2 of RFC 2965: 2 cookies, with the same NAME, but a different PATH. It's about the precedence of cookies. Cookies with a more specific path have precedence over cookies with less specific paths. See Example 2 of the RFC, it's nicely explained there. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
