I think tomorrow PHP will announce security releases, and probably it could be 8.1.3

@andypost, yep, we can still increase the patch version anytime between now and beta1. We just should get this in before alpha2, which we want to release within the next day or so for today's security updates (among other things).

Patch is rtbc at this point
