Ondřej Surý has announced the release of updated PHP packages 8.4.7 and 8.3.21 for Debian GNU/Linux versions 11 (Bullseye) LTS, 12 (Bookworm), and 13 (Trixie). In addition, older PHP versions (5.6 through 8.2) have been updated to include security fixes from PHP 8.3.21.
To add the PHP repository, users can execute a simple bash script. This script checks for root permissions, installs necessary packages, and updates the system's package list to include the new PHP repository.
The key fixes and improvements for PHP 8.4.7 include:
- Core Improvements: Multiple bugs fixed, including memory leaks and segmentation faults in various functions such as `extract()`, `array_walk()`, and `DateInterval` properties.
- DBA and Filter: Memory leak fixes and integer overflow issues addressed.
- GD Library: Fixes related to image cropping and text rendering.
- OpenSSL: Resolved memory leaks and potential issues when handling invalid algorithms.
- PDO Firebird/SQLite: Multiple fixes to improve stability and error handling.
- Standard Library and Zip: Various memory leak fixes and improvements to resource handling.
PHP 8.3.21 shares many of the same improvements, with additional focus on memory management and error handling in libraries like LDAP and Zip.
These updates are crucial for maintaining the stability and security of PHP applications running on Debian systems. Users are encouraged to upgrade to the latest versions to benefit from these enhancements and fixes.
