# PHP ships maintenance releases 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 and 8.2.35

The PHP project published new point releases across four supported branches: 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 and 8.2.35. These are routine maintenance updates covering bug fixes and stability patches rather than new features. Site operators running any of these branches should plan upgrades to stay on supported, patched versions.
