Comment:

 Hi there, welcome to WordPress Trac! Thanks for the report.

 Are you using PHP 8? This exact issue was fixed in [48838] and [48961] /
 #50913 for WordPress 5.6.

 For some context, [https://wordpress.org/support/wordpress-
 version/version-5-5/ WordPress 5.5] was released in August, and
 [https://www.php.net/releases/8.0/en.php PHP 8.0] only less than two weeks
 ago.

 WordPress 5.6 (coming up later today) is the first version that
 [https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/11/23/wordpress-and-php-8-0/ aims
 for (beta) compatibility with PHP 8.0].
