- The installer says it needs no sudo, checks a SHA-256 checksum, and adds the command under the user's home folder.
Field notes
The PHP checks look beyond the version string: the page says Debian and Ubuntu package changelogs are consulted to identify patched builds, while Red Hat-family users are directed to check vendor notices. It also describes checking whether PHP serves web requests and watching for changes to web files and php.ini settings, including auto_prepend_file and auto_append_file. The page explicitly warns that snapshot comparisons are not live intrusion detection.
