Re: PHP 8.1 and OpenSSL

Hi Christoph, "Christoph M. Becker" in php.internals (Wed, 18 Jan 2023 13:20:41 +0100): >While the official builds for PHP 8.2 already use OpenSSL 3.0, the PHP >8.1 builds are still using OpenSSL 1.1.1. However, OpenSSL 1.1.1 is >only supported till 2023-09-11[1], while PHP 8.1 is supported till >2024-11-25[2]. Although I don't like bumping the OpenSSL version in the >middle of PHP 8.1's lifetime, I suppose it is necessary to avoid falling >behind security support.

Objections? > >[1] <https://www.openssl.org/policies/releasestrat.html> >[2] <https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php> I noticed that PHP 8.1.20 at https://windows.php.net/download/ was built with OpenSSL 1.1.1t and PHP 8.2.7 & 8.3.0 Alpha 1 with OpenSSL 3.0.8. What will be the official policy for 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3? All 3 versions with OpenSSL 3.0.x or 8.1 still with OpenSSL 1.1.1? And none of the three versions with OpenSSL 3.1.x? Please clarify. -- Jan
