Transaction ignores starting hub

Medium Severity

TransactionSampler::startTransaction builds the transaction with only a TransactionContext, so the instance binds to SentrySdk::getCurrentHub() instead of the Hub that invoked startTransaction. Sampling still uses that hub’s client options, but finish() and dynamic sampling context use the current hub’s client and scope, which can mis-route or mis-tag events when those hubs differ.

Bug: The Transaction constructor now defaults to the global hub instead of using the specific hub instance on which startTransaction() was called, affecting multi-hub scenarios.
Severity: MEDIUM

Suggested Fix

The TransactionSampler::startTransaction method should be updated to accept the HubInterface instance as a parameter. This hub instance should then be passed explicitly to the Transaction constructor, restoring the previous behavior and ensuring the transaction is associated with the correct hub on which it was started.

agent. Verify if this is a real issue. If it is, propose a fix; if not, explain why it's
not valid.

Location: src/Tracing/TransactionSampler.php#L25

Potential issue: The refactoring of `TransactionSampler::startTransaction` to a static
method removed the passing of the `HubInterface` instance to the `Transaction`
constructor. Consequently, the constructor now defaults to using the global hub via
`SentrySdk::getCurrentHub()`. In scenarios where multiple hubs are instantiated and
used, calling `startTransaction()` on a specific, non-global hub will cause the
resulting transaction to be incorrectly associated with the global hub. This leads to
the transaction event being captured by the wrong hub and its Dynamic Sampling Context
(DSC) being populated from the wrong client's options, breaking the API contract for
multi-hub usage.
