Bug Description

Ubuntu 18.04 currently deploys PHP 7.2.7 with the php7.2 package. However, PHP 7.2.8 fixes an important vulnerability with a critical solution to crippled functionality in a wide range of PHP scripts when running php-fpm.

From the PHP 7.2.8 changelog: "FPM: Fixed bug #73342 (Vulnerability in php-fpm by changing stdin to non-blocking)."

For reference, the PHP bug is: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=73342

I would request that the PHP 7.2 package be updated to at least 7.2.8 in order to facilitate adoption of this fix.
