  • Updates are not so important. Security depends not only on the version of PHP. Safety depends primarily on the verification data sending to the server.

    • I would say security depends more on the coding. If have a PHP file upload script which is coded terrible, than people will abuse it. Even with the latest PHP version. So forget PHP "security updates" allways make sure, to decently code your script, specially if you have critical functions that can be abused.
  • PHP is the most commonly used server-side programming language, with 81.8% of web servers deploying it, according to W3 Techs.
    An open source technology, PHP is unusual in that it is both a language and a web framework, with typical web framework features built-in to the language. Like all web languages, there is also a large community of libraries etc. that contribute to the security (or otherwise) of programming in PHP. All three aspects (language, framework, and libraries) need to be taken into consideration when trying to secure a PHP site.
    PHP is a 'grown' language rather than deliberately engineered, making writing insecure PHP applications far too easy and common. If you want to use PHP securely, then you should be aware of all its pitfalls.
