As usual, HN only cares about PHP when there's some FUD to spread.

This is an old bug that was made public and fixed over a year ago [0].

I didn't intend to spread FUD when I posted this - I wasn't aware the equality check was also fixed. I use Laravel in a lot of projects and only saw it posted elsewhere today.

re the downvotes: fair enough I guess.

Just curious but where did you see this? This was posted last week on /r/php and the Laravel creator stepped in and pointed out that it was patched awhile ago.

A php group on linkedin. Probably posted from /r/php but I haven't been there in a while.
