ionCube(?) causes bin/magento to segfault when run inside the debug container (PHP 8.1)

[mattijv]

Tested with

• Warden 0.14.3
• PHP 8.1.29 (seems to be the current default when initializing Warden environment)
• Xdebug 3.3.2
• ionCube Loader 13.3.1

Steps to reproduce

1. Initialize a new Warden environment warden env-init, choose magento2 as the type.
2. Install symfony/console with composer require symfony/console.
3. Add the test file (below) and enter the debug container.
4. Run php test.php.

This should result in the following:

www-data@segfault-php-debug:/var/www/html$ php test.php 
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

(Xdebug will complain about not being able to connect, but that does not affect the problem so I omitted it from the output.)

Test file to trigger the issue

<?php

use Symfony\Component\Console\Attribute\AsCommand;
use Symfony\Component\Console\Command\CompleteCommand;

require 'vendor/autoload.php';

$attribute = (new \ReflectionClass(CompleteCommand::class))->getAttributes(AsCommand::class);

$attribute[0]->newInstance();

Details

I faced this problem when running the Magento CLI command (bin/magento) and tracked down the problematic lines to \Symfony\Component\Console\Command\Command::getDefaultName (when subclassed as \Symfony\Component\Console\Command\CompleteCommand). The test file is a minimal sample that triggers the issue.

Running the file with gdb reveals the following stack trace after triggering the segfault:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

The segmentation fault does not happen if I either

1. run the sample program from the normal (non-Xdebug) shell, OR
2. disable the ionCube loaders by commenting out the line in /etc/php.d/01-ioncube-loader.ini.

Thoughts

I'm guessing this is an issue with ionCube and not in the Warden images per se. However, since the images bundle the problematic version, and I can't quickly find an official way to disable it, I'm opening this issue here.

[mattijv]

It appears this does not happen with PHP 8.2 or 8.3.

Same issue also with PHP 8.2 and 8.3. Disabling ionCube solves the issue.

@mattijv @CSalih What is your OS and Architecture (x64/aarch64)?

Interestingly, I'm not seeing this on Mac OS X 14.5 aarch64.

@navarr Ubuntu 24 and MacOS 15 both running on x64 architecture. Seems to be an x64 related issue?

@mattijv do you have the latest image? You may run warden env pull && warden env up and it try again?

Edit: For PHP 8.2 and 8.3

[mattijv]

Changed the PHP version in .env to 8.2 and 8.3, and did warden env pull between each test.

No errors (beside the xdebug warnings).

Went back to 8.1:
