Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.105888
Category:Web application abuses
Title:PHP End of Life (EOL) Detection - Windows
Summary:The PHP version on the remote host has reached the end of life; (EOL) and should not be used anymore.
Description:Summary:
The PHP version on the remote host has reached the end of life
(EOL) and should not be used anymore.

Vulnerability Insight:
Each release branch of PHP is fully supported for two years from
its initial stable release. During this period, bugs and security issues that have been reported
are fixed and are released in regular point releases.

After this two year period of active support, each branch is then supported for an additional year
for critical security issues only. Releases during this period are made on an as-needed basis:
there may be multiple point releases, or none, depending on the number of reports.

Once the three years of support are completed, the branch reaches its end of life and is no longer
supported.

Vulnerability Impact:
An EOL version of PHP is not receiving any security updates from
the vendor. Unfixed security vulnerabilities might be leveraged by an attacker to compromise the
security of this host.

Solution:
Update the PHP version on the remote host to a still supported
version.

CVSS Score:
10.0

CVSS Vector:
