Not for sendmail, that's for sure. There are some security vulns in php, but 
they are swamped by the number found in software (poorly) written in php - and 
it's that which gives it such a bad name. phpBB, osCommerce spring to mind, and 
I do seem to be rewriting large chinks of said products because of it ( and the 
cr*p html they produce ).
