I think you need to read up on php and how it works more throughly. It
runs on a remote system (or the local system using a web server with php
linked/added into it). The ability to enter data via the web is a
function of the html <form> tag, not php. What you do with that data
and how secure the environment is depends on the knowledge and skill of
the php programmer.

Injection attacks can be filtered out with the proper screening of data
obtained from a form. There are lots of sites that discuss web site
security. Google them to expand your understanding.

php can run standalone as part of a web server with a database. Or it
can be shared amongst other users with proper permissions or ACLs
security access to the php source code running on the server. Again,
this requires the implementor know enough about the security model of
the environment he's running on. Google is your friend here also.

So some more reading and ask your question again.
