 Yes, you are ;-). Even totally screwed up Apache server totally in hands
 of script-kiddie via totally screwed up PHP release (not that it would
 ever happen, just a theoretical example) cannot do more than it is
 allowed to do by SELinux -- and that's not that much.

I think I remember a recent case for SELinux lowering the impact of a
_real_ security issue in one package.
I wanted to blog about it but could not find it anymore :(

There are several. Refer to the mitigation news section in
