That was by mistake.  I don't think it doesn't really matter to have
that commit there; there won't be another release, and the tags are
still correct.

Well, there may be other (security) backport repos, but generally,
that's the idea.

(I should note that Microsoft does not maintain the branches in this
repo except for the PHP-5.6-security-backports-openssl11 branch.)

CVE-2020-7071 has a long history: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=77423 
The strange thing is that the fix was also applied to the official PHP 7.2
branch, which should not receive security fixes anymore.

Would not it be better to keep these kind of security backports limited to
https://github.com/microsoft/php-src/commits/PHP-7.2-Security-backports ?

PHP 7.3.26, 7.4.14 and 8.0.1 fix CVE-2020-7071, so all three releases
are actually security releases (which also have regular bug fixes).

PHP 7.3.26, 7.4.14 and 8.0.1 fix CVE-2020-7071, so all three releases
are actually security releases (which also have regular bug fixes).

Hi Gabriel,

The release page (https://www.php.net/releases/8_0_1.php) states that it's a
bug fix release. I assume that's correct?
