Are there specific resources or websites that PHP developers should regularly check for security updates and alerts?

PHP developers should regularly check resources such as the PHP Security Advisories Database, OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project), and security blogs like The PHP Security Blog for security updates and alerts. These resources provide information on common vulnerabilities, best practices for secure coding, and updates on security patches for PHP. 

// Example code snippet to check for security updates using the PHP Security Advisories Database API

$api_url = 'https://security.sensiolabs.org/check_lock';
$response = file_get_contents($api_url);
$data = json_decode($response, true);

if ($data['status'] === 'success') {
    echo 'No security updates found.';
} else {
    echo 'Security updates available! Check the PHP Security Advisories Database for details.';
}
