The PHP development team would like to announce the immediate
availability of PHP 5.2.8. This release addresses a regression
introduced by 5.2.7 in regard to the magic_quotes functionality, that
was broken by an incorrect fix to the filter extension. All users who
have upgraded to 5.2.7 are encouraged to upgrade to this release,
alternatively you can apply a work-around for the bug by changing
"filter.default_flags=0" in php.ini.
For users upgrading from PHP 5.0 and PHP 5.1, an upgrade guide is
available here (http://www.php.net/migration52), detailing the changes
between those releases and PHP 5.2.8. For a full list of changes in
PHP 5.2.8, see the ChangeLog (http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-5.php#5.2.8).
