Regarding the rumours the PHP patches don’t fix the vulnerabilities - it’s not true, they patched the vulnerabilities of issue. The rumours are also separate issue which people are mixing up. Don’t panic about that one. https://fedi.katze.sh/@elise/117480160480660575

    @GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social There's a lot more setjmp/longjmp use in there, which would make it even harder to reason about the code than normal for a project like this. Combine that with trying to handle out of memory conditions without terminating, and I wouldn't be surprised if there are a lot more bugs out there. I can understand why you wouldn't want mod_php taking down the web server in these cases, but perhaps that just means putting the language runtime inside the web server is a bad idea.
