[php-maint] Bug#581911: php5-cgi: General protection and segfaults since 5.3.2

[Richard van den Berg]

Package: php5-cgi
Version: 5.3.2-1
Severity: normal

I used php5-cgi 5.3.1 without any problems for months. Since I upgraded
to 5.3.1 I get the following messages, a few every hour. Site behaviour
seems normal as the errors occur not too often.

May 16 23:24:59 majoron kernel: php-cgi[26226] general protection ip:697ce6 sp:7fff3b8d9de0 error:0 in php5-cgi[400000+6c9000]
May 16 23:29:14 majoron kernel: php-cgi[26352]: segfault at 18a6f3beb9 ip 0000000000698949 sp 00007fff2e424d50 error 4 in php5-cgi[400000+6c9000]

I am using php5-cgi in combination with:

apache2-mpm-worker                      2.2.15-5 
libapache2-mod-fcgid                    1:2.3.5-1

Looking at the error and access logs, the following php software triggers
the errors:

drupal6                                 6.16-1 
gallery2                                2.3.1.dfsg-1

However, I think that is just because these hold the most of my pages, so
they have a higher chance of being hit.
