[dependabot]

Updates the requirements on squizlabs/php_codesniffer to permit the latest version.

Release notes

Sourced from squizlabs/php_codesniffer's releases.

4.0.1 - 2025-11-10

This release includes all improvements and bugfixes from PHP_CodeSniffer 3.13.5.

Added

• Runtime support for PHP 8.5. All known PHP 8.5 deprecation notices have been fixed.
  • Syntax support for new PHP 8.5 features will follow in a future release.
  • If you find any PHP 8.5 deprecation notices which were missed, please report them.

Changed

• The Squiz.ControlStructures.SwitchDeclaration sniff will now flag a PHP close tag as a "wrong opener" and will auto-fix this by inserting a colon. #1316
• Various housekeeping, including improvements to the tests and documentation.

Fixed

• 4.x regression #1277: bring back whitespace tolerance in phpcs:ignore comma-separated rule reference lists.
  • Note: this bug did not affect phpcs:disable/phpcs:enable ignore annotations.
• Fixed bug #968: Generic.WhiteSpace.ScopeIndent was reporting false positives - and making incorrect fixes - for lines following a line containing an arrow function.
  • Thanks to Soichi Sato for the patch.
• Fixed bug #1216: Tokenizer/PHP: added more defensive coding to prevent PHP 8.5 "Using null as an array offset" deprecation notices.
  • Thanks to Andrew Lyons for the patch.
• Fixed bug #1279: Tokenizer/PHP: on PHP < 8.0, an unclosed attribute (parse error) could end up removing some tokens from the token stream.
  • This could lead to false positives and false negative from sniffs, but could also lead to incorrect fixes being made mangling the file under scan.
• Fixed bug #1315: Squiz.ControlStructures.SwitchDeclaration: a number of the fixers would get into fixer conflicts with each other if the code under scan contained multiple statements on a line within a switch.
  • The sniff will now forbid - and auto-fix - multiple statements on one line for case/default and "case breaking" statements.
• Fixed bug #1316: Tokenizer/PHP: a PHP close tag after a switch case condition or after a default keyword, was not regarded as a "scope_opener" for the case/default body.
• Fixed bug #1316: PSR2.ControlStructures.SwitchDeclaration: the WrongOpener error is now also auto-fixable if the wrong opener is a PHP close tag.
• Fixed bug #1316: Squiz.PHP.NonExecutableCode would throw false positives when code within a switch control structure would move in and out of PHP.
