The PHP development team would like to announce the immediate availability of PHP 5.2.13. This release focuses on improving the stability of the PHP 5.2.x branch with over 40 bug fixes, some of which are security related. All users of PHP 5.2 are encouraged to upgrade to this release.

Security Enhancements and Fixes in PHP 5.2.13:

* Fixed safe_mode validation inside tempnam() when the directory path does not end with a /). (Martin Jansen)
* Fixed a possible open_basedir/safe_mode bypass in session extension identified by Grzegorz Stachowiak. (Ilia)
* Improved LCG entropy. (Rasmus, Samy Kamkar)


When PHP 5.2.13 addons release? I haven't see 5.2.12 addons also

No need to install using Addons. Just got to [windows.php.net] and download PHP5.2.13 VC6 x86 Thread Safe zip package (DO NOT USE THE INSTALLER).

Once downloaded extract the contents of the zip to C:/wamp/bin/php/php5.2.13

Copy the following files from your current version of PHP (eg C:/wamp/bin/php/php5.2.10) to your php5.2.13 folder
php.ini
phpForApache.ini
wampserver.conf

Right click WAMP tray icon and choose Refresh. Now Left click the wamp tray icon and goto PHP > PHP Version > PHP 5.2.13

You should now being using PHP5.2.13.
