RFC: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/tostring_exceptions
And convert some object to string conversion related recoverable
fatal errors into Error exceptions.
Improve exception safety of internal code performing string
conversions.
Normalization include:
- Use dnl for everything that can be ommitted when configure is built in
favor of the shell comment character # which is visible in the output.
- Line length normalized to 80 columns
- Dots for most of the one line sentences
- Macro definitions include similar pattern header comments now
- All credits, license info preserved, only merged together to not have
to many places to edit.
- Changelogs integrated in the readme since they are not used anymore.
By introducing a hook that is called whenever one of
internal_encoding / input_encoding / output_encoding changes, so
that mbstring can adjust it's internal state.
This also makes internal_encoding work with zend multibyte.
Autoconf defines PACKAGE_* symbols:
- PACKAGE_NAME
- PACKAGE_VERSION
- PACKAGE_TARNAME
- PACKAGE_STRING
- PACKAGE_BUGREPORT
- PACKAGE_URL
and appends them to the generated config.h.in files. With AC_INIT change
via afd52f9d99 where package version, URL,
bug report location and similar meta data are defined, these
preprocessor macros are then non empty strings in the generated
configuration header file. When using phpize, PHP shares the config
files in extensions, warnings of redefined macros appear, such as:
- `warning: 'PACKAGE_NAME' macro redefined`
This patch now disables these non utilized symbols in the generated
config header files.
Better practice would be to include only API specific headers where
needed but this would require even more refactorings. Some extensions
such as pcre, pgsql, and pdo_pgsql solve this issue by undefining some
of these symbols before including the library configuration headers in
the code also. Because these symbols can be defined by any library which
uses Autotools.
Additionally, the unused PACKAGE_* symbols were cleaned for the bundled
libmbfl library and with this patch not needed undef code removed.
* PHP-7.2:
Validate subject encoding in mb_split and mb_ereg_match
Validate pattern against mbregex encoding
SQLite3: add DEFENSIVE config for SQLite >= 3.26.0 as a mitigation strategy against potential security flaws
* PHP-7.1:
Validate subject encoding in mb_split and mb_ereg_match
Validate pattern against mbregex encoding
SQLite3: add DEFENSIVE config for SQLite >= 3.26.0 as a mitigation strategy against potential security flaws
Oniguruma does not consistently perform this validation itself (at least
on older versions), so make sure we check pattern encoding validity on the
PHP side.
Autoconf 2.59d (released in 2006) [1] started promoting several macros
as not relevant for newer systems anymore, including the `AC_HEADER_STDC`.
This macro checks if given system has C89 compliant header files such
as `<string.h>`, `<stdlib.h>`, `<stdarg.h>`, `<float.h>`,... and defines
the `STDC_HEADERS` symbol [2]. Case is that current systems should be
well supported with at least C89 standard headers [3].
Given headers are still additionally checked with the `AC_PROG_CC`
macro, yet not needed anyway.
Additionally, the HAVE_MEMCPY check has been removed. The memcpy
function is standardized by C89 and later.
