From the PHP Internals mailing list sent @ 12:08 EDT
The PHP development team would like to announce the immediate
availability of PHP 5.3.8. This release fixes two issues introduced in
the PHP 5.3.7 release:
- Fixed bug #55439 (crypt() returns only the salt for MD5)
- Reverted a change in timeout handling restoring PHP 5.3.6
behavior, which caused mysqlnd SSL connections to hang (Bug
#55283).
All PHP users should note that the PHP 5.2 series is NOT supported
anymore. All users are strongly encouraged to upgrade to PHP 5.3.8.
