Remi's RPM repository - Blog

Two year afters PHP 8.0, and as announced, PHP version 8.1.34 was the last official release of PHP 8.1

To keep a secure installation, the upgrade to a maintained version is strongly recommended:

• PHP 8.2 has security only support and will be maintained until December 2026.
• PHP 8.3 has security only support and will be maintained until December 2027.
• PHP 8.4 has active support and will be maintained until December 2026 (2028 for security).
• PHP 8.5 has active support and will be maintained until November 2027 (2029 for security).

• Migration guide from PHP 8.2.x to PHP 8.3.x
• Migration guide from PHP 8.3.x to PHP 8.4.x
• Migration guide from PHP 8.4.x to PHP 8.5.x

ℹ️ However, given the very important number of downloads by the users of my repository the version is still available in remi repository for Enterprise Linux (RHEL, CentOS, Alma, Rocky...) and Fedora and will include the latest security fixes.

⚠️ This is a best effort action, depending on my spare time, without any warranty, only to give users more time to migrate. This can only be temporary, and upgrade must be the priority.

You can also watch the sources repository on github.
