fedora
Calendar Grey November 7, 2017
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Fedora 25 launches vital PHP security update targeting several vulnerabilities and improving overall system reliability and efficiency.
**PHP version 7.0.25** (26 Oct 2017) **Core:** * Fixed bug php#75241 (Null pointer dereference in zend_mm_alloc_small())

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.
