I think i found our problem. We aren't using any allowed patterns. So in our case $allowed_patterns is passing along an empty string, which then triggers the error in _string_to_array. This patch checks if $allowed_patterns has content before proceding.

I can confirm that the patch solves this issue

The fix is strange, as the error in the issue summary is about

Passing null to parameter #3 ($subject)

which is not affected here, but NULL-checked some lines before already.

This fix definitely doesn't make things worse, so let's merge it!
