Fedora 23 PHP Update FEDORA-2016-f1d98cf017 Critical Fixes

fedora
Calendar Grey May 2, 2016
Dist Fedora Esm H88
This patch addresses multiple Python issues in Fedora 25 to enhance operation, reliability, safety, and efficiency.
28 Apr 2016, **PHP 5.6.21** ** Core: ** * Fixed bug #69537 (__debugInfo with empty string for key gives error)

Summary

PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it

easy for developers to write dynamically generated web pages. PHP also

offers built-in database integration for several commercial and

non-commercial database management systems, so writing a

database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common

use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts.

The php package contains the module (often referred to as mod_php)

which adds support for the PHP language to Apache HTTP Server.
