Wether a "container package" (like apache) requires an update when a "base
package" (like php) is updated, depends on the particular packages.

Normally there is such a strict dependency and you are fully right.

In case of php and apache the vulnerability was very narrow and would
not have required an update of apache.

However, due to our mistake, we had again such a requirement.
