[php-maint] Bug#347642: php5-5.1.1-1 segfaults

[Christian Kujau]

Package: php5
Version: 5.1.1-1
Severity: important


when updating to php5.1.1-1 one of the application i used made
apache2-mpm-prefork segfault:

[Wed Jan 11 21:03:56 2006] [notice] child pid 9649 exit signal
Segmentation fault (11)
[Wed Jan 11 21:04:09 2006] [notice] child pid 9696 exit signal
Segmentation fault (11)
[Wed Jan 11 21:04:21 2006] [notice] child pid 9650 exit signal
Segmentation fault (11)

i'm running apache2.0.55-3 and this version was not updated, only php5,
so i supect php5 to be the source of the problem. unfortunately i'm not
very good on debugging php errors.
"error_reporting=E_ALL" is set, but the only "error" i get is a .notice:

[11-Jan-2006 15:18:42] PHP Notice:  Undefined index:  user in
/usr/local/opt/torrentflux/html/functions.php on line 27
[11-Jan-2006 15:18:42] PHP Notice:  Undefined index:  user in
/usr/local/opt/torrentflux/html/functions.php on line 27

that's why i suspected that the new php5 version broke something and i
had to fix the code, but since this is a notice only, i've looked in
the apache2-errorlog and found the segfaults. the application which
triggers the error is "torrentflux" [0], where the index.php triggers
the segfault (prior login).

If if you need further information i'll be happy to provide them.

thank you for your time,
Christian.
