Bug 133155 – PHP/Upstream fread

• Status: RESOLVED INVALID
• Product: Gentoo Linux

It seems fread intepretates contents. I don't know if this should be reported here, but it looks like a bug.

<?php
  $filename = 'maillist.php';
  $fp = fopen($filename, 'r+');
  /*$contents = '<?php exit; ?>a:1:{s:0:"";b:1;}';*/
  $contents = fread ($fp, filesize ($filename));
  echo substr($contents, 14);
  fclose($fp);
?>

maillist.php having contents: <?php exit; ?>a:1:{s:0:"";b:1;}

<?php
  $contents = '<?php exit; ?>a:1:{s:0:"";b:1;}';
  echo $contents;
  echo substr($contents, 14);
?>

Probably good to mention what is expected and what happens.

Expected:
a:1:{s:0:"";b:1;} as output of substr

Results with fread:
<?php exit; ?>a:1:{s:0:"";b:1;}

I missed the chars prepanding <?php exit; ?> which did show up in vim, but not in cat.
