Indeed.  But sources referenced in RHSA-2005:564-15, where
CAN-2005-1751 and CAN-2005-1921 are mentioned, are explicitely
marked as outdated by RHSA-2005:748-05 (CAN-2005-2498) so the latest
presumably have fixes for all these.  Source packages are somewhat
different for RHEL3 and RHEL4 so you possibly need a right fit for
FC1 and FC2.

In my earlier remarks I meant that it does not look that any fix
is needed for RH7.3; simply because the code with problems is not
there.

Yesterday updates for FC3 include also php-4.3.11-2.8.src.rpm
(and php-5.0.4-10.5.src.rpm for FC4).
