Server operating system version
AlmaLinux 8.10
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.77
Hi
I am currently using Plesk installed on AlmaLinux 8.
I recently learned that while AlmaLinux comes bundled with PHP version 7.2, OS backport support is available for version 7.4.
Additionally, according to information from my server management provider, Plesk provides PHP 7.4 on Plesk with OS backport support patches incorporated, so I understand that updates are expected to be similar to those for the OS-bundled version.
Is this information correct?
I understand that backport support for PHP on AlmaLinux is scheduled to continue until May 2029, so please let me know if I am correct in assuming that updates will be provided until then.

Best Regards,
 
In theory, if PHP 7.4 is installed by the OS vendor, Plesk shouldn't inter with the security update pushed by AlmaLinux.

Could you please share the full source material for this statement? Thanks in advance.
