php is a server side script language and does not run on client side. basically if your site on the server does not use any php script at all then you do not need to be concerned about any php hack. full stop.

php would only causing harm on the server, whereas client-side scripting languange such as javascript could cause harm to a user's local pc.

Php is not the only website scripting language that could be open to abuse, in fact no one can say any language is 100% secure and hack-free - it is a matter that the loophole has not been discovered as yet. there is always someone out there looking for these loopholes either to exploit (bad guys), or to plug (good guys). It is something we will have to live with just like all the evil things in a socienty.
