Hello,

The PHP development team would like to announce the immediate 
availability of PHP 4.4.9. It continues to improve the security and the 
stability of the 4.4 branch and all users are strongly encouraged to 
upgrade to it as soon as possible. This release wraps up all the 
outstanding patches for the PHP 4.4 series, and is therefore the last 
PHP 4.4 release.

Security Enhancements and Fixes in PHP 4.4.9:

    * Updated PCRE to version 7.7.
    * Fixed overflow in memnstr().
    * Fixed crash in imageloadfont when an invalid font is given.
    * Fixed open_basedir handling issue in the curl extension.
    * Fixed mbstring.func_overload set in .htaccess becomes global.

A separate release announcement is also available. For changes in PHP 
4.4.9 since PHP 4.4.8, please consult the PHP 4 ChangeLog. 

Release Announcement: http://www.php.net/release_4_4_9.php
Downloads:            http://www.php.net/downloads.php#v4
Changelog:            http://www.php.net/ChangeLog-4.php#4.4.9

regards,
Derick

Hello,

Is the link in the changelog pointing to the wrong bug? Seems mb related but
speaks of mysqli. Just something small I noticed.

There are a typo in NEWS of PHP 4.4.9.
#37421 should be #27421.
