Hot on the heels of the PHP 5.2.13 release (which we posted about at the end of February) comes the latest version in the 5.3 series. The PHP development team today released PHP 5.3.2, a maintenance release, which fixes a large number of bugs and plugs a few security issues for good measure.

This release addresses such issues as improved LCG entropy, safe_mode validation inside tempnam(), and a whole host of other fixes that are available for review on the 5.3.2 changelog page.

People running earlier versions of the 5.3 series are encouraged to upgrade their systems.  For those running PHP 5.2, a migration guide is available, detailing the changes between versions.

As always, source downloads are available from the PHP downloads page, and Windows binaries are available as well.
