    **OpenSSL:**

    * The openssl_private_decrypt function in PHP, when using PKCS1 padding (OPENSSL_PKCS1_PADDING, which is     the default), is vulnerable to the Marvin Attack unless it is used with an OpenSSL version that includes     the changes from this pull request: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/13817     (rsa_pkcs1_implicit_rejection). These changes are part of OpenSSL 3.2 and have also been backported to     stable versions of various Linux distributions, as well as to the PHP builds provided for Windows since     the previous release. All distributors and builders should ensure that this version is used to prevent PHP     from being vulnerable. (**CVE-2024-2408**)

    **Standard:**

    * Fixed bug [GHSA-9fcc-425m-g385](https://github.com/php/php-src/security/advisories/GHSA-9fcc-425m-g385)     (Bypass of CVE-2024-1874). (CVE-2024-5585) (nielsdos)

    **XMLReader:**

    * Fixed bug [GH-14183](https://github.com/php/php-src/issues/14183) (XMLReader::open() can't be     overridden). (nielsdos)
