A few days ago, my system suddenly became vulnerable to two old PHP GLSAs (I run a emerge --sync and glsa-check during the night).

Any idea what's going on? Re-emerging PHP doesn't help, and since my version is higher than the recommended one for 5.4.x, it shouldn't be vulnerable.

Code:

This system is affected by the following GLSAs:
201411-04
201408-11

that's something for bugs.gentoo.org as glsa-check seems to not care about "Unaffected" entry list (which validate your version is not vulnerable)
