Infinite loop on some dates/times

[e7o-de]

The loop in whois.parser.php#L910 runs infinitely for values like

Creation Date: 2021-07-19T13:03:01.00Z

A print_r($res); just before the while shows this in my case:

Array
(
    [m] => 2023
    [d] => 07
    [y] => 19T13:03:01
)

Confirmed error for the following domains:

• France (.fr)
• New Zeland (.nz)

I am developing a branch to solve this problem.

@kevinoo We are still experiencing this issue, do you still plan to solve it ?

[kevinoo]

Hi @maxiwheat
can you give me an example with this error ?

I have a solution ready, however I would like to test with more cases.

The commit is in feature/kevinoo/Fr_Nz_Handler

Thanks ❤️

[maxiwheat]

Hi @kevinoo, thanks for taking the time to look at it 🙏

We have this issue with the domain free.fr

Do you need a more complete sample of our code or only the domain is enough ?

[kevinoo]

All I needed was the domain, thanks! 😄

I checked on the fly and I can confirm that the problem persists even with my fix, I'll try to correct it this week. 🙏

I just pushed a fix on https://github.com/ABouchard55/phpWhois , it seemed, in this case, to be a date parsing issue that didn't consider microseconds.

Hi @kevinoo, thanks for taking the time to look at it

Hi maxiwheat,
I publish a new version v6.0.4 with the fix for FR and NZ domain 💪

You can download from packagist: kevinoo/phpwhois

Have a nice day!

@kevinoo nice. I switched to your version 6.1. That fixed all the last issues - so I could remove my fixes in my application. Thanks again for your efforts

[e7o-de]

@kevinoo thank you very much, now I can finally get rid of my fancy workarounds with pre-parsing via RegEx and direct instantiation ;) Oh, that was ugly ...
