system: openSUSE 11.0 (X86-64) kernel: 2.6.25.5-1.1-default #1 SMP 2008-06-07 01:55:22 +0200 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux glibc-2.8-14.1

Hello List,

may be its the wrong list, but this problem covers divers topics. (kernel, packaging/patching, programming) I got a strange seg-fault when reading a imap-inbox with php5/php5-imap (original opensuse http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/server:/php/server_apache_openSUSE... ) my testscript is first example at: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imap-headerinfo.php

In most cases there are no complications. now i viewed problems with special mail. there is an email in inbox with ~5000 recipients in TO:-Field. Reading this headerinfo causes the seg-fault. Only thing i see is in /var/log/messages:

Dec 11 11:29:04 myhostname kernel: php[22514]: segfault at 7fffee14c000 ip 7f2ce47f0d5b sp 7fffee145328 error 6 in libc-2.8.so[7f2ce4770000+14f000]

catching log with strace -f shows alarm() messages but nothing more helpful for me.

Are there some packagers who know backgrounds for this problem or should i post directly to kernellist? there is a new kernel 2.6.25.18-0. available but dont want to upgrade without having more info about this issue. My 32bit Installations (suse10.1) are not affected by this problem.

What to do now?

No, This is not a kernel problem, it is a problem in php5-imap or said otherwise, yet another issue derived from the "imap" package libraries, it is a piece of crap.

What to do now?
