This is the current version of php on Slackware 15.0 but according to https://www.php.net/eol.php , version 7.4 went EOL 3 years ago.

My Central IT dept. security team flagged this up.  Could anyone comment on its maintenance status?

I notice that php 8.0, 8.1 & 8.2 are in the extra repository/directory although 8.0 is already EOL (https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php).

Slackware-current has php-8.4.

Thanks
