Heap Use-After-Free (UAF) Bug in PHP

Description

Description:
I encountered a heap UAF bug in PHP with commit fb257ee83c405fecf449571bfcd1cc0fb4910336 I built the binary following OSS-Fuzz's guidelines, and the bug was reproduced in php-fuzz-execute.

<?$my_var[][]=set_error_handler(function()use(&$my_var){$my_var=0;});$my_var[0].="";

This test case is a regression of OSV-2021-1199 (details here), which was marked as fixed in commit 24ff7eee3f04070d8ab1b31f57d17f0c840185bf.
