Whats new in 10.5.7 for PHP / Ruby folks




So I installed the mighty 10.5.7 upgrade with great excitement. It was stated in the upgrade doc that there are small and slight visuale appearant changes, its mosty changes in the background. I was interested to see what has changed for the PHP & Ruby fans on Mac with this release.

PHP

Impact: Multiple vulnerabilities in PHP 5.2.6

Description: PHP is updated to version 5.2.8 to address multiple vulnerabilities, the most serious of which may lead to arbitrary code execution. Get details on whats changed in 5.2.8 by clicking here.

At the time of writing this post 5.3.0 is released. And the old problem of missing GD2 library still persists. Apple must have a great reason behind it for sure :)
