PHPStan missingCheckedExceptionInThrows configuration supported versions PHPStan 1.12 2.2
💡 Result:
**Yes—`exceptions.check.missingCheckedExceptionInThrows` is supported in both PHPStan 1.12 and 2.2.** PHPStan’s docs describe the option, and the 2.2 configuration schema includes it. ([phpstan.org](https://phpstan.org/config-reference?utm_source=openai))
```neon
parameters:
exceptions:
checkedExceptionClasses:
- App\Exception\MyCheckedException

```
You must configure `exceptions.checkedExceptionClasses` or `exceptions.checkedExceptionRegexes` for the check to work. ([phpstan.org](https://phpstan.org/config-reference?utm_source=openai))
**Version caveat:** I found direct schema confirmation for 2.2, but not a 1.12 branch schema in the available sources. So 1.12 support isn’t independently established here; the official docs and upgrade guide confirm the option’s general use and PHPStan’s 1.12-to-2.x upgrade path, but don’t explicitly confirm this key for 1.12.

No change needed. If checkedExceptionClasses and checkedExceptionRegexes are not set, PHPStan treats every exception as checked, except the classes in uncheckedExceptionClasses. To confirm, I removed the @throws \InvalidArgumentException tag from the constructor. PHPStan 2.2.16 then reported:
Method MaxMind\Db\Reader::__construct() throws checked exception InvalidArgumentException but it's missing from the PHPDoc @throws tag. [identifier=missingType.checkedException]

Agent reply on behalf of @oschwald.
No change. We removed this tag on purpose. ValueError extends Error, and phpstan.neon makes Error unchecked. A NUL byte in the database path is a programmer error, like a TypeError, so callers should not have to declare it.
One correction: on PHP 8.4, is_dir() returns false for a path with a NUL byte. The ValueError comes from the fopen() call after it.
Turn on missingCheckedExceptionInThrows so that the PHPDoc of the pure PHP reader lists every checked exception that can reach a caller. Private helpers declare their exceptions, so the check follows them to the public methods. The Reader class PHPDoc notes that the C extension may differ. Configure Error and BadMethodCallException as unchecked, because they signal programmer errors, such as a lookup on a closed reader. Setting Error explicitly makes the result the same on all PHPStan 2.2 releases. 2.2.5 treats Error as checked by default, and 2.2.16 does not. LogicException stays checked. The reader throws InvalidArgumentException for an invalid IP address or a missing database file, and callers must handle those. The Reader constructor, get(), and getWithPrefixLen() now declare RuntimeException, which the decoder throws for an integer that needs gmp or bcmath when neither is installed, and for a data offset that is too large for the platform. The constructor also declares UnexpectedValueException. The lookup methods describe the IPv6-in-IPv4 InvalidArgumentException. close() declares BadMethodCallException in place of Exception, and metadata() no longer declares InvalidArgumentException, because both throw only BadMethodCallException and ArgumentCountError. Decoder::decode() and Util::read() declare their exceptions. The Decoder constructor declares InvalidDatabaseException, which isPlatformLittleEndian() can throw. Tests do not declare exceptions, because PHPUnit handles any exception a test throws. An ignoreErrors entry limits that to tests/, and all other rules still check the tests.

composer.lock is not committed, so the require-dev constraints alone decide which tool versions CI and developers install. PHPStan used "*", which allows any version, including a future major release that changes behavior. Require PHPStan 2.2, or 1.12 on PHP 7.2 and 7.3. The test workflows install the dev dependencies on PHP 7.2, and PHPStan 2 needs PHP 7.4. php-cs-fixer and PHP_CodeSniffer already have a major-version bound. A higher php-cs-fixer floor would not resolve on PHP 7.2. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

There was a problem hiding this comment.
decodeMap() uses the decoded key as an array key (line 470) and does not check that it is a string. A corrupt map key thus gives a TypeError, or PHP changes its type silently. It does not give the InvalidDatabaseException that the new decode() and get() PHPDoc promises.
The data bytes E1 E0 A0 (a map whose key is an empty map) make Decoder::decode() throw TypeError: Cannot access offset of type array on array (confirmed on PHP 8.3). A double or uint16 key becomes an int array key silently. libmaxminddb rejects non-string keys, so the C extension behaves differently. A caller that catches only the declared InvalidDatabaseException from Reader::get() does not catch this corrupt-database error.
This bug is older than this PR, but the PR now documents this method.

Fixed in da47649. decodeMap() checks that a decoded key is a string before using it. Invalid keys now throw InvalidDatabaseException. Regression tests cover map, array, integer, double, and boolean keys. The changelog records the behavior change.

metadata() now declares only BadMethodCallException, which is unchecked in this config. But metadata() in the C extension throws the checked InvalidDatabaseException when it cannot decode the metadata (the MMDB_get_metadata_as_entry_data_list failure in ext/maxminddb.c).
PHPStan reads this PHP source for MaxMind\Db\Reader. Thus a downstream project with checked exceptions sees that metadata() throws no checked exception, and a catch of InvalidDatabaseException can look like dead code. With ext-maxminddb loaded, a damaged metadata section throws InvalidDatabaseException, and the caller does not handle it. The class note "The C extension may differ" does not name this case.

b0f69f1 names the C-extension failure in the metadata() docblock prose. I kept it out of the pure PHP @throws list because that implementation decodes metadata during construction. This also preserves the earlier correction requested in this review. The GeoIP2 wrapper retains its InvalidDatabaseException declaration because it supports both implementations. PHPStan still cannot infer the extension-only throw from this source declaration.

The constructor gives the decoded metadata to Metadata::__construct (line 124) and does not validate it. Thus metadata of the wrong type gives a TypeError, not the InvalidDatabaseException that this PHPDoc describes for an invalid database.
If record_size in the metadata is a string or a map, Metadata::__construct calculates $this->recordSize / 4, and PHP 8 throws TypeError: Unsupported operand types: string / int (confirmed). A caller that handles only the declared InvalidDatabaseException does not catch it.

Fixed in 0a57395. The reader checks the decoded metadata container, and Metadata validates fields before arithmetic or use by the reader. Invalid metadata now throws InvalidDatabaseException.

The constructor, get() and getWithPrefixLen() declare the broad \RuntimeException, which covers all of its subclasses. Thus the new missingCheckedExceptionInThrows check cannot find a new subclass that the reader throws, and it does not enforce the separate @throws \UnexpectedValueException.
I removed @throws \UnexpectedValueException from the constructor, and PHPStan still reported no errors. A future UnexpectedValueException, OverflowException or similar also passes with no report, and downstream callers must catch all RuntimeExceptions. A dedicated exception class for the missing gmp/bcmath case and the offset-overflow case would keep the check precise. If that class extends RuntimeException, the change stays backward compatible.

Fixed in ebc163b. Both platform failures now throw UnsupportedPlatformException, which extends RuntimeException. The reader and decoder declare the specific class, leaving UnexpectedValueException as a separate checked type. The missing-extension test passed with gmp and bcmath disabled.

This entry says that RuntimeException occurs only when gmp or bcmath is missing. It does not include the case where a data offset is too large for the platform. The PHPDoc and the commit message include both cases.
A user on 32-bit PHP who reads this can think that gmp or bcmath prevents the exception, but a 4-byte pointer that overflows still causes it.
Also, the entry does not say that the public Decoder constructor now declares InvalidDatabaseException. Users who construct Decoder directly get no notice.

Fixed in ebc163b and a272d7a. The changelog now covers both missing integer extensions and offsets that exceed the platform limit. It also names the new UnsupportedPlatformException subtype. Decoder::__construct() no longer declares InvalidDatabaseException, so there is no new constructor exception to announce.

Decoder::__construct now declares the checked InvalidDatabaseException only because isPlatformLittleEndian() unpacks a constant. That cannot fail, and it is not related to the database.
Now each caller of the public Decoder constructor must declare or catch a database exception for a platform check that cannot fail. It is better to fix the source: use an unchecked exception (for example LogicException or \Error), or remove the dead branch.

Fixed in a272d7a. The impossible unpack failure now throws unchecked Error, and the checked database-exception declarations are removed from the endian helper and constructor.

decodeUint() now has a PHPDoc block. Thus @return int|string can replace the // @phpstan-ignore-next-line comment that suppresses missingType.return.
The ignore comment is now between the docblock and the signature, and it suppresses all PHPStan errors on that line, not only the missing return type. I added @return int|string and removed the ignore line, and PHPStan passed with 1.12.34, 2.2.0 and 2.2.13.

Fixed in be567b1. decodeUint() now declares @return int|string, and the broad ignore is removed. PHPStan 1.12.34 and 2.2.17 pass.

Release order for the 4 STF-1850 PRs. This comment is the same on each of them:
- Enable checked-exception analysis and validate malformed database data #299
- Enable checked-exception analysis and fix HTTP client error handling web-service-common-php#142
- Enable checked-exception analysis and complete exception contracts GeoIP2-php#348
- Enable checked-exception analysis and fix input validation failures minfraud-api-php#292
Reader #299 and web-service-common #142 add @throws \RuntimeException to methods that GeoIP2 and minFraud call. GeoIP2 and minFraud do not commit a lockfile, and their version constraints accept the new releases. GeoIP2 requires maxmind-db/reader: ^1.13.0 and maxmind/web-service-common: ~0.11. minFraud gets web-service-common through geoip2/geoip2: ^v3.4.0. Thus, when an upstream PR is released, PHPStan fails in the downstream repo on its next CI run, unless the downstream change is already merged.
Suggested order:
- Merge GeoIP2-php #348 and minfraud-api-php Bump the codeql group with 2 updates #292 first. Add
@throws \RuntimeExceptionwhere the upstream releases need it. The other comments in these reviews give the lines. An extra@throwstag is not an error now, becausetooWideThrowTypeis not enabled. In GeoIP2, move themetadata()andclose()ignores tophpstan.neonwithreportUnmatched: false, so that PHPStan passes before and after the reader release. - Release MaxMind-DB-Reader-php Enable checked-exception analysis and validate malformed database data #299 and web-service-common-php Enable more compiler warnings #142.
- In GeoIP2 and minFraud, raise the version constraints to the new releases and remove the ignores that are no longer necessary.

Agreed. The downstream fixes are now pushed in maxmind/GeoIP2-php#348 and maxmind/minfraud-api-php#292. Both pass PHPStan and PHPUnit with the revised upstream source. Merge those PRs before releasing this PR and maxmind/web-service-common-php#142. The dependency minimums and obsolete compatibility ignores can be updated after release.

When this PR is released, PHPStan fails in GeoIP2-php. GeoIP2 requires maxmind-db/reader: ^1.13.0 and commits no lockfile, so its next CI run gets the new release. The maxmind/GeoIP2-php#348 review put the source of this branch in vendor and got 4 errors in src/Database/Reader.php:
- Lines 72 and 322:
RuntimeExceptionis not declared. - Lines 357 and 368: the inline ignores for the old
metadata()andclose()tags become unmatched (ignore.unmatchedIdentifier).
GeoIP2-php #348 must handle these before this release. See the release-order comment in this review.

The corresponding fixes are pushed in maxmind/GeoIP2-php#348. Its constructor and lookup chain now declare RuntimeException, and the two old-reader ignores are optional config entries. PHPStan and PHPUnit pass with this reader source in GeoIP2's vendor directory. Merge #348 before releasing this PR.

Enable PHPStan checked-exception analysis for STF-1850. Missing exception declarations are checked in source code. Test methods and helpers are exempt, and source-only analysis also passes.
The pure PHP reader now rejects non-string map keys and invalid metadata with InvalidDatabaseException. Optional languages and description fields default to empty arrays.
Missing gmp/bcmath support and oversized offsets now throw UnsupportedPlatformException, a RuntimeException subclass. Existing RuntimeException catches still work. The specific declaration lets PHPStan distinguish platform failures from other runtime exceptions. The constant endian check no longer exposes a checked database exception. Decoder::decodeUint() declares its return type instead of suppressing errors on the signature.
The metadata() docblock explains the C-extension failure separately from the pure PHP exception declaration. Changelog entries cover the behavior changes.
Merge maxmind/GeoIP2-php#348 before releasing this change. PHPStan 1.12.34 also passes. The test for missing gmp and bcmath passed in a separate run with both extensions disabled.
Validation on PHP 8.5.4: PHPUnit, PHPStan 2.2.17, PHP-CS-Fixer, PHP_CodeSniffer, and Composer validation pass.
