Most of security principles apply to not just PHP, but also to other web programming languages. Writing standard code does not mean you are writing secure code. And about PHP security, oh well, it could be better, but if you stay up-to-date with your PHP version, you should be okay.

Essential PHP Security by Chris Shiflett is a nice book to begin with,if you want to know about secure coding.
It was a nice read(i speak for myself).


cheers!
