From: c dot onogol at gmail dot com Operating system: Windows NT PHP version: 5.2.5 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: stripslashes() removes backslashes in wrong cases
Description: ------------ stripslashes is supposed to remove backslashes added by addslashes(): from the doc: stripslashes Un-quote string quoted with addslashes() addslashes Quote string with slashes stripslashes return values from the documentation: Returns a string with backslashes stripped off. (\' becomes ' and so on.) Double backslashes (\\) are made into a single backslash (\). The problem is that it removes single backslashes that are not escaping any quotes/slashes. For example, "this one \ that one" should stay the same after running stripslashes(), but it actually is stripping the backslash, so the end result of stripslashes("this one \ that one") is "this one that one". the backslash in "this one \ that one" is part of the original text and is not a backslash addslashes() would add. Reproduce code: --------------- <? $str = "this one \ should stay. it\'s a \"test\""; $str = stripslashes($str); var_dump($str); ?> Expected result: ---------------- string(37) "this one \ should stay. it's a "test"" Actual result: -------------- string(36) "this one should stay. it's a "test"" -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44876&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.2): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=trysnapshot52 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 5.3): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=trysnapshot53 Try a CVS snapshot (PHP 6.0): http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=trysnapshot60 Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=needscript Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=php4 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=gnused Floating point limitations: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=float No Zend Extensions: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=44876&r=mysqlcfg
