After recent reports of several critical security vulnerabilities of PHP based software.
A casual search at Secunia revealed 1599 Secunia Security Advisories. In contrast Java has 225 security vulnerabilities and much younger .NET platform has 827.
PHP based products has 5 Extremely Critical and 376 Highly Critical security vulnerabilities.
Interestingly I found 873 virus which can affects PHP files (based on search, didn't verify all of them individually).
Here however .NET is unbeatable with 8963 virus which affects its products.
Java is a poor third with only 227 virus which can apparently affect it.
Disclaimer: The provided number are based on search results and only the top few results have been manually verified.
