PHP_CodeSniffer has run under PHP 8 for some time, but it has not supported all new language features until this release. Version 3.6.0 adds support for all new PHP 8 language features, including:
Attributes
Constructor property promotion
Named arguments
Union types
Match expressions
Static and Mixed return types
Note: All standards and sniffs included with PHP_CodeSniffer have been updated to support these language features, but external standards and sniffs may need updating before they are able to detect them correctly.
Changelog
Added support for PHP 8.0 union types
A new T_TYPE_UNION token is available to represent the pipe character
File::getMethodParameters(), getMethodProperties(), and getMemberProperties() will now return union types
Thanks to Juliette Reinders Folmer for the patch
Added support for PHP 8.0 named function call arguments
A new T_PARAM_NAME token is available to represent the label with the name of the function argument in it

Added support for PHP 8.0 attributes
The PHP-supplied T_ATTRIBUTE token marks the start of an attribute
A new T_ATTRIBUTE_END token is available to mark the end of an attribute
