nothing else you mention even raises an eyebrow.  These two are likely
your culprits if you run untrusted scripts.  I'd disable all the posix
api functions and dl-functionality based on a recent report.

As far as /root/2/ that doesn't correspond to something I know of, but
limiting users who run PHP, or even better, running them with cgiwrap
or fastcgi in a nobody sandbox is an even better solution.

If you aren't running untrusted scripts, I'd start looking for exploitable
flaws in your PHP applications.  Especially over that /root/2/ assault.
