Crash on out of memory #24584
Description
Description
php2shell was a consequence of PHP trying to recover from out of memory. An alternative approach, which is likely much simpler to maintain, is to not even attempt to recover. Instead, treat OOM as fatal and call _exit or abort, terminating the process. The supervisor can then restart it.

@Krishmal2004 assign to whom? I’m a security researcher, not a PHP core developer.

This is a bit of an oversimplification.
This is not acceptable for environments like ZTS. The current behaviour was chosen deliberately.
