Default WP Marketer Plugin Causing PHP to Core Dump

A word of caution about the WP Marketer plugin. The WP-Marketer plugin was is causing the /feed URL and PHP to core dump. The system was segmentation faulting (segfault) when performing a regex for display of a particular portion of the page. For example, when I would click on my feed url, it would say page could not be displayed. Also, it would create a bunch of core dump files on my server causing the diskspace to fill up rather quickly. I deactivated and activated each plugin separately until I found that it was the WP Marketer plugin.

I have removed 50+ core files from my website account that had been generated through accesses of the /feed.

Nick,

Thanks for the heads up on this.

I went ahead and published an alert over at WordPress Hacks.

Hi Nick,

If you can provide more details perhaps we can identify whether WPMarketer could have caused the core dump you mention. The feed problem you mention was corrected several updates back and we have never seen or heard of a core dump issue like you mention. The plugin has been downloaded over 1200 times now on wp.org and nobody else has reported anything similar. Also we have this plugin installed on many sites running on dev, test and production servers and have not found anything like what you describe. Love to hear more about what version of MySQL, PHP, etc. you are running so that we can investigate it further.

Note: As this is my first post on this board I truly hope that mods will not see this as self promotion but we do not want people to think that the plugin, which is free to download, has a serious issue and Nick has not provided us with any details of the problem he reports here.

Regards,
Steve, Developer, WPMarketer
