Does active SELinux (as used in Red Hat derivatives) limit the damage at all?

I built some rhel7 systems that are relaying user-provided LDAP credentials into a domain controller, and these are probably wide open with these flaws.

I would hope that SELinux would prevent the launch of a shell, at least.

Does PHP built with FORTIFY_SOURCE and other RedHat-recommended compiler flags help?

Interestingly, PHP lists it as a 9.2 but RHEL lists it as an 8.1.

Is this because RedHat's default configuration isn't as vulnerable?

I'm ignorant of how these numbers are calculated. Could PHP on Debian, Ubuntu, etc. be a 9.2 but on RedHat it's only an 8.1 because RedHat has various mitigations?
