Set `session.upload_progress.enabled=0` until the next PHP release to block an unlikely RCE vector (CVE-2026-115560).

We already recommended this for CVE-2026-109619 from Wednesday: keep it disabled.

Only applications with non-default `serialize_handler` switching it to `php` at runtime can be affected.

There is more information in the advisory on the PHP website by the PHP security team: https://www.php.net/archive/2026.php#2026-10-23-1

@opensuse The green colour really adds some character to it, nice!

@OdyX @quad9dns When I said that in Québec they claimed to have never heard it before!

Our global team, including @ondrej, worked around the clock to deliver PHP2Shell fixes: ~500 builds covering all 12 supported PHP versions, 10 Debian/Ubuntu releases and up to 4 architectures. Updates rolled out progressively over ~15 hours, with the rollout fully complete by 1:30 AM CEST.

why do people call LLM training on public website data “AI Copyright Infringement” when “six finger discount” is right there

RT: @sarrah_bellus Wow.

Albanians just set fire to the Supreme Court after it allowed Jared Kushner to buy land in the country against the their will.

@quad9dns How do I say "THAT'S FUCKING INSANE!" in French!?

The French courts yesterday handed down an unfavorable ruling against Quad9 in a major case that undermines the transparency and stability of the internet. As a result, Quad9 will no longer be able to offer its free cyberprotection service to users located in France effective November 24.

You know a piece of software is bad news when it makes it all the way to being on Democracy Now!

(yes it's PHP)

After a few failed attempts over the years, I'm really happy to finally have a working, reliable and fast dual-stack ipv4/ipv6 setup at home. Best of all, connections to Europe have around 30ms less latency. It doesn't sound like much, but I can feel it.

@mechko That is both tragic and hilarious!

Just think about all the folks downloading the PHP patches through a connection that is part of MITM attack, because their curl or whatever is still using the emSign Root CA.

I just want to say thanks to the Debian Security Team for making my life sooooo much easier. For the most part, if I keep my system up to date I can switch my brain off.

In years of running many Debian systems for many people, I've never had a serious incident involving something that the Debian security team could've done anything about. Really stellar work and I'm sure many people don't even realise how much they benefit from it!

@b0rk I badly want to use anything else than vim, but then I keep inserting random i's everywhere.

@demoographics You're not alone.

If you're still using PHP 5... something is very wrong in your life.

Now that the updates are out, and I can finally show the article for php2shell

This has been long in the making, as I was part of the disclosure process and helped with liaising to (amongst others) CERT-Bund.

I'm glad this is out, even though it leaked a day ahead of time.

Now, it's time to watch the web burn, I'm afraid.
