It is rumored that php.net has been hacked. The attacker said they have
changed PHP source code as well. Is it a false announcement?

nope
I hope there will be an announcement soon, but from the publicly available
info, the wiki was the source of the intrusion.
and that was taken down for security reasons, and this vulnerability was the
cause/related to this issue:

next time send the security releated emails to security@php.net
