Could you build this?

Partial An AI assistant can port upstream diffs to old PHP branches, but correctly backporting C-level RCE fixes to EOL codebases needs deep PHP internals knowledge and rigorous testing before the patches can be trusted.

What it would actually take: Start from the upstream PHP security commits and adapt them to each old branch, which means reading the Zend engine C code and resolving conflicts by hand. The hard part is verifying that the patches fix the vulnerability without regressions, which needs a fuzzing or PoC harness and review by an experienced C and PHP internals engineer.
