Statement on glibc/iconv Vulnerability

    Deprecated Features

    PHP Core

    Usage of dynamic properties

    The creation of dynamic properties is deprecated, unless the class opts in by using the #[\AllowDynamicProperties] attribute. stdClass allows dynamic properties. Usage of the __get()/__set() magic methods is not affected by this change. A dynamic properties deprecation warning can be addressed by:

    • Declaring the property (preferred).
    • Adding the #[\AllowDynamicProperties] attribute to the class (which also applies to all child classes).
    • Using a WeakMap if additional data needs to be associated with an object which one does not own.

    Relative callables

    Callables that are not accepted by the $callable() syntax (but are accepted by call_user_func()) are deprecated. In particular:

    • "self::method"
    • "parent::method"
    • "static::method"
    • ["self", "method"]
    • ["parent", "method"]
    • ["static", "method"]
    • ["Foo", "Bar::method"]
    • [new Foo, "Bar::method"]
    This does not affect normal method callables such as "A::method" or ["A", "method"].

    "${var}" and "${expr}" style interpolation

    The "${var}" and "${expr}" style of string interpolation is deprecated. Use "$var"/"{$var}" and "{${expr}}", respectively.

    MBString

    Usage of the QPrint, Base64, Uuencode, and HTML-ENTITIES 'text encodings' is deprecated for all MBString functions. Unlike all the other text encodings supported by MBString, these do not encode a sequence of Unicode codepoints, but rather a sequence of raw bytes. It is not clear what the correct return values for most MBString functions should be when one of these non-encodings is specified. Moreover, PHP has separate, built-in implementations of all of them; for example, UUencoded data can be handled using convert_uuencode()/convert_uudecode().

    SPL

    The internal SplFileInfo::_bad_state_ex() method has been deprecated.

    Standard

    utf8_encode() and utf8_decode() have been deprecated.

    a have a baseclass for all databasemodels and handle my dynamic property setter and getter this way:

        public array $dynamicProperties = [];

        public function __set(string $name, mixed $value) {
            if(property_exists($this, $name))
                $this->{$name} = $value;
            else
                $this->dynamicProperties[$name] = $value;
        }
       
        public function __get(string $name) {
            if(property_exists($this, $name))
                return $this->$name;
            else
                return $this->dynamicProperties[$name];
        }

    just put the content into a class and extend from it. enjoy :)
