Fedora 31: FEDORA-2020-94763cb98b Critical: PHP Security Updates

fedora
Calendar Grey October 7, 2020
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Crucial Fedora 31 PHP upgrade 7.3.23 resolves several problems and strengthens defense against established security risks.
**PHP version 7.3.23** (01 Oct 2020) **Core:** * Fixed bug php#80048 (Bug php#69100 has not been fixed for Windows)

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.
