Please note:

We always recommend having a WordPress + WooCommerce website that can run on the latest versions as it makes the page both faster and more secure. We always suggest to keep the software up-to-date and seek their support/forums for any known vulnerabilities/fixes/workarounds available.

PHP versions older than 7.3 no longer receive official security updates. We advice our clients to update PHP version for their websites to latest one and it can be done easily within their Control Panel :
