PHP 5.5 support will stop on the 10 July 2016

8 Jul 2016/0 Comments/in Security/by Rob Hooper

Quick Public Safety Announcement, PHP 5.5 is end of life (EOL) on the 10 July 2016.

Anything not running PHP version 5.6 or newer exposes your site to significant security vulnerabilities.

We have ensured that all our customers are safe and ready. Unsure if you are affected? Want a hand upgrading? Get in touch!

I am a big fan of graphs, Jordi Boggiano has provided this is a great overview of the PHP versions out there in the wild!

We are very happy to see a big drop in PHP 5.3 and 5.4 since they have long passed end of life and a surprisingly quick rise in the brand new PHP 7.0. 🙂
