Cannot install php5-curl on Debian8

When trying to execute ‘apt-get install php5-curl” following error accurs

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
php5-curl : Depends: php5-common (= 5.6.33+dfsg-0+deb8u1) but 5.6.40+dfsg-0+deb8u8 is to be installed

Any Idea how to fix this?

    PHP 5 has been officially unsupported for over a year by now – I think you’re going to struggle to resolve dependencies. Even Jessie (the only version still shipping PHP 5 by default, which you seem to be using) becomes unsupported within a few months of now.

    Your best long-term plan is to plan your code’s upgrade to compatibility with PHP 7.4

    Because the security repository is missing / disabled on your `sources.list.

    php5-curl is available on the security repository.

    You should add the following line to your /etc/apt/sources.list :

    deb http://security.debian.org/debian-security jessie/updates main

    Then :

    sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install php5-curl
