AI summary of the mechanism: > The crash is a cross-thread use-after-free: > > 1. gRPC executes a PHP CallCredentials callback directly on a native > EventEngine worker thread. > 2. In PHP NTS, executor globals—including the profiler VM > interrupt—are process-wide. The gRPC thread can therefore consume a > pending wall-time profiling interrupt. > > 3. The profiler stack-walks that foreign thread and caches raw ThinStr > pointers in Zend’s function runtime cache. > 4. Those strings are actually owned by a Rust thread_local StringSet > belonging to that specific gRPC worker. > 5. After the worker remains idle, gRPC retires it. Its TLS destructor > frees/unmaps the string arena, but Zend’s runtime cache still contains > the pointers. > 6. A later callback/sample retrieves one of those dangling pointers > and crashes in: > ``` > ThinStr::len > StringSet::get_thin_str > collect_time > zend_call_function > plugin_get_metadata > ``` > The deterministic reproducer is one sufficiently long callback, a > 25-second idle interval allowing worker retirement, then another > callback. > > Forking, AppSec, tracing, payload stress, and allocation profiling are > not required. The profiler must avoid sampling threads that never ran > PHP request initialization and must not store thread-local arena > pointers in runtime-cache slots accessible from other threads.
