PHP 5.5.12 for Debian Wheezy

On April 30th 2014, the PHP group has released PHP 5.5.12 :

This release fixes several bugs against PHP 5.5.11, as well as CVE-2014-0185 regarding PHP-FPM. All PHP users are encouraged to upgrade to this new version.

As a consequence, PHP 5.5.12 packages are now available on Dotdeb for Debian 7.4 “Wheezy”, on both amd64 and i386 architectures.

Please read the Changelog and the migration guide (be aware of the backward incompatible changes) before upgrading.

Please note that if you’re using an Unix socket to make PHP-FPM talk to your web server, you’ll have to set the listen.owner and listen.group directive to the right user/group (usually www-data), for each of your pool. Don’t change the permissions on the socket from 0660 to 0666 (too permissive), it would avoid the CVE-2014-0185 fix.

And don’t forget: if you find Dotdeb useful, you may want to show your support.

MySQL PHP

About the “mysql_connect(): Headers and client library minor version mismatch” warning

After having MySQL 5.6.17 published, some users complained about a warning thrown by their PHP applications :

PHP Warning: mysql_connect(): Headers and client library minor version mismatch. Headers:50535 Library:50617

In fact, this could happen with any application linked to libmysqlclient18 in a certain version (php5-mysql from Dotdeb is linked to the 5.5.35 version from the stock Debian distribution) when connecting to a MySQL server in another version (5.6.17 in our case). The warning is thrown by libmysqlclient18 itself. And this is just a warning, there is no reason why any bad behavior would happen in that case.

Of course, I could build php5-mysql against the latest libmysqlclient18 (5.6.17), but it would lead to very bad issues, such as duplicate symbols or segfaults when PHP is loaded with other MySQL-linked modules from the stock Debian distribution (those are linked to libmysqlclient18 5.5.35). For example : mod_php5 + Apache + mod_auth_mysql would crash.

If this this warning really annoys you, feel free to install php5-mysqlnd instead of php5-mysql :

  • it’s a drop-in replacement
  • it’s not linked against any libmysqlclient library
  • it won’t throw any irrelevant warning about version mismatch
  • it has a lot of benefits. See http://www.php.net/mysqlnd for more info

I hope this helps.
