Research direction
Start with src/Utils.php around lines 62–63 and follow the encryption flow into src/Encryption.php, using the reported stack trace and the provided WebPush setup as the entry point. Compare the failing subscription or key data with working notifications and add a regression case if the input can be reproduced. Done means the invalid input is handled appropriately and notification sending no longer reaches the reported Base64Url type error.

Problem

Hi, I am using this package in production and most of the notifications to differents users seems to work. But today I got the following error:
[13-Aug-2023 08:52:55 Europe/Paris] PHP Warning: hex2bin(): Hexadecimal input string must have an even length in /home/XXX/public_html/vendor/minishlink/web-push/src/Utils.php on line 62

It seems that there is a problem in the file Utils.php line 62 on this lines:
return [
hex2bin(mb_substr($data, 0, $dataLength / 2, '8bit')),
hex2bin(mb_substr($data, $dataLength / 2, null, '8bit')),
];
Expected
Please explain what you expected to happen
The notification should be sent like the other ones that works.
Features Used
- VAPID Support
- Sending with Payload
Example / Reproduce Case
Please provide a code sample that reproduces the issue. If there is a
repository that reproduces the issue please put the link here.
I can not really provide a code to reproduces that since I think I should not share my private key but do not hesitate to tell me if you need unsensitive data.
Here is an example of the code that init the web push and send the notifications maybe I missed something ?
$auth = [
'VAPID' => [
'subject' => WEB_PUSH_DOMAIN,
'publicKey' => WEB_PUSH_NOTIFICATION_PUBLIC_KEY,
'privateKey' => WEB_PUSH_NOTIFICATION_PRIVATE_KEY,
],
];
try {
$webPush = new WebPush($auth);
foreach ($webPushTokens as $token) {
$webPush->queueNotification(
Subscription::create([
'endpoint' => $token['endpoint'],
'contentEncoding' => $token['content_encoding'],
'keys' => [
'p256dh' => $token['p256dh'],
'auth' => $token['token']
]
]),
json_encode([
'title' => $title,
'body' => $text
])
);
}
foreach ($webPush->flush() as $report) {
}
} catch (Exception) {
}
Other
Please put any remaining notes here.
I don't really know why it is not working for an user but I was not able to test it for firefox since I am not really able to reproduce that.
