PDO MySQL and other settings required by a script

[sensai]

There are some scripts that I want to install on my server with Softaculous but require me to enable features on my server.
They are : PDO MySQL
curl
mbstring
zlib
ftp
gettext
mcrypt

Is it ok to go ahead and add all of these in apache, my concern is would any of these cause a problem or security issue, or are they required for most applications anyway.
I was trying to learn about PDO, also would this cause problems with existing or future MySQL databases on server?
Thanks.

Hello

Those are common modules enabled on many systems through EasyApache. I am not aware of any specific security flaws associated with any of those modules at this time, however it's always best to consult with a qualified system administrator for specific security advice.

In addition, you should not encounter any problems with your MySQL databases after enabling the PDO module.

Thank you.
