We have created a free script that can be uploaded to your web server and used to easily determine if your Apache HTTP Server is currently running an unpatched version.

2. PHP 7 upgrades now required and how to bill for them

A reminder that as of January 1, 2019, PHP 5 has been discontinued and will no longer be receiving security updates. We recommend that sites upgrade to the latest version of CMS Builder (3.51) and the PHP 7+.
