Bug #67720 [NEW]: Backport security and usability fixes to PHP 5.3

From: neweracracker at gmail dot com Operating system: Irrelevant PHP version: Irrelevant Package: *General Issues Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Backport security and usability fixes to PHP 5.3 Description: ------------ I noticed security related bugfixes were backported to PHP 5.3 branch: http://git.php.net/?p=php-src.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/PHP-5.3 It is my opinion that there are more two bugfixes to be backported. One is a usability fix for the SSL certificates using GeneralizedTime format, see bugs #65698 and #66636. Another one is for issues related with type confusion: http://git.php.net/?p=php-src.git;a=commit;h=b4a4db467b6a1e90131705832f1a3613a60c4259 I have made the following patches, adapted from git commits, against PHP 5.3.28 source tar and there maybe some changes in the current code I have not accounted for. I would like to see this backported to PHP 5.3 branch. And, when time comes right, a final release for PHP 5.3 (PHP 5.3.29). Thanks for all the hard work.
