 Replying to [comment:20 azaozz]:
 > Do you know what the difference is between `is_supported` and
 `is_secure`

 This is based on [https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php PHP:
 Supported Versions]. Technically, at this time:
 * `is_supported` should be 8.0, the earliest version still receiving bug
 fixes in regular point releases.
 * `is_secure` should be 7.4, the version only receiving critical security
 fixes on an as-needed basis.

 However, `is_supported` has not been bumped to 8.0 yet, for the reasons
 stated in #meta6432.

 > and why that would matter to the users?

 For insecure versions, the warning is more "severe", it has a red
 exclamation mark (as seen on the [attachment:"56199.php-update-
 recommended-5.6.x.png" screenshot]) and specifically states that the
 version is insecure, rather than just outdated.
