PHP Stopped Working

We’ve been using this service for over a year.

Our PHP Scripts stopped working sometime in the last month.
We were using curl requests to fetch data with the following set:

curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);

We are finding it a little tough to get to the bottom of why they’ve stopped working on us (we’ve not upgraded anything in the last couple of months).

Anyone else had their PHP stop working on them? Any clues? Thanks

Could it be related to this?

Not something I know much about but it was implemented about a month ago.
