Important Security Update: PHP Security Mitigations

Opened on October 22nd, 2026 9:40 am GMT, last updated October 22nd, 2026 9:40 am GMT

Monitoring

Shared Hosting and Managed Servers: Our teams have successfully patched the servers. Mitigations remain in place as an additional layer of protection while this work is finalized.

VPS/DEDI Unmanaged Servers: As patches have been released, we have immediately applied them where possible, and file upload functionality, if impacted, will return to normal when all patches have been completed.

Please take immediate action to secure your environment. It is critical that you update your PHP to 8.2 or later, WordPress, and associated plugins to the latest version to protect your site from continued security risks.

We may have to take network action to limit the impact should we detect malicious activity on your server.

Additionally, you can reduce your exposure through restricting public access to your PHP application or leveraging WAF rules. The PHP foundation has additional info on how to limit exposure. Refer https://www.php.net/archive/2026.php#2026-10-21-5 for more details.

Please feel free to reach out to our Support team if you have any questions or require further assistance.
