研究方向

Start in ext/pdo_odbc/odbc_stmt.c at odbc_stmt_describe(), where SQL_DESC_DISPLAY_SIZE determines the SQL_BIT column buffer size; review the existing driver-specific length adjustments and the SQLBindCol call. Check whether the proposed minimum buffer handles the reported IBM i Access ODBC Driver behavior, then add or locate coverage for SQL_BIT fetching. Done means the reported BOOLEAN query fetches without CWB0111 while existing PDO ODBC behavior remains covered.

描述

Bug Status: Needs Triage
Description

When fetching rows containing native BOOLEAN columns from IBM Db2 for i (IBM i 7.5+) using pdo_odbc with the official IBM i Access ODBC Driver (libcwbodbc.so), SQLFetchScroll throws a buffer overflow error:

SQLSTATE[22018]: Invalid character value for cast specification: 30200 
[IBM][System i Access ODBC Driver]Column X: CWB0111 - A buffer passed to a system call is too small to hold return data 
(SQLFetchScroll[30200] at ext/pdo_odbc/odbc_stmt.c:624)
Root Cause Analysis

In ext/pdo_odbc/odbc_stmt.c inside odbc_stmt_describe():

  1. pdo_odbc queries SQL_DESC_DISPLAY_SIZE via SQLColAttribute:
    rc = SQLColAttribute(S->stmt, colno+1, SQL_DESC_DISPLAY_SIZE, NULL, 0, NULL, &displaysize);
    colsize = displaysize;
    
  2. For an IBM i BOOLEAN column (ODBC type SQL_BIT / -7), the IBM driver reports a display size of 1.
  3. Because colsize < LONG_COLUMN_BUFFER_SIZE (1 < 256), pdo_odbc allocates a 2-byte fixed buffer (emalloc(colsize + 1)):
    S->cols[colno].data = emalloc(colsize+1); // allocates 2 bytes
    rc = SQLBindCol(S->stmt, colno+1,
        S->cols[colno].is_unicode ? SQL_C_BINARY : SQL_C_CHAR,
        S->cols[colno].data,
        S->cols[colno].datalen+1, &S->cols[colno].fetched_len);
    
  4. While the ODBC specification states that SQL_BIT converted to SQL_C_CHAR should return "0" or "1", the IBM i Access ODBC driver (libcwbodbc.so) formats boolean values as "TRUE" (5 bytes with null terminator) or "FALSE" (6 bytes with null terminator).
  5. During SQLFetchScroll, writing "FALSE\0" (6 bytes) into the 2-byte buffer triggers the driver's CWB0111 buffer overflow error.
PHP Version

PHP 8.3 / 8.4 / 8.5

Operating System & Environment
  • OS: Linux (Debian 12 / Ubuntu 24.04 / Docker)
  • ODBC Manager: unixODBC 2.3.12
  • ODBC Driver: IBM i Access Client Solutions (ibm-iaccess 1.1.0.29-1.0 / libcwbodbc.so)
  • Database: IBM Db2 for i (IBM i 7.5+)
Steps to Reproduce
  1. Connect to an IBM i 7.5+ system with pdo_odbc.
  2. Create a table with a native BOOLEAN column:
    CREATE TABLE test_bool (id INT, is_active BOOLEAN);
    INSERT INTO test_bool VALUES (1, FALSE);
    
  3. Run a query through PDO:
    $pdo = new PDO('odbc:DRIVER={IBM i Access ODBC Driver};SYSTEM=...;', $user, $password);
    $stmt = $pdo->query('SELECT is_active FROM test_bool');
    $rows = $stmt->fetchAll(); // Throws CWB0111
    
Expected Result

The row should be fetched without errors (returning 'FALSE', '0' or boolean equivalent).

Actual Result
Fatal error: Uncaught PDOException: SQLSTATE[22018]: Invalid character value for cast specification: 30200 
[IBM][System i Access ODBC Driver]Column 1: CWB0111 - A buffer passed to a system call is too small to hold return data 
(SQLFetchScroll[30200] at ext/pdo_odbc/odbc_stmt.c:624)
Proposed Workaround / Solution in pdo_odbc

Just like pdo_odbc already has driver-specific adjustments in odbc_stmt_describe() for SQL Server lengths, pdo_odbc could ensure a minimum buffer of 6 bytes for SQL_BIT columns to safely accommodate non-compliant drivers that write "FALSE\0":

/* Ensure buffer can accommodate "FALSE\0" for drivers returning text booleans */
if (S->cols[colno].coltype == SQL_BIT && colsize < 6) {
    colsize = 5; // colsize + 1 will allocate 6 bytes
    S->cols[colno].datalen = colsize;
}
