PHP vulnerabilities

Most members will already know that critical vulnerabilities have been found in php, the scripting language used in many websites. It's been top news everywhere. Vulnerabilities: CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619

Debian patches have already been applied in Trixie and Bookworm Security:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tra … age/php8.4

Many older versions of php have also had fixes backported.

Regular BunsenLabs Carbon and Boron users should run the usual apt update and upgrade commands to make sure that their packages are up to date.

People running their own web servers should take care that any php libraries they are using have been patched for these vulnerabilities.

The BunsenLabs forum server has also been upgraded.

Re: PHP vulnerabilities

When something as very critical to web infrastructure as PHP is, vulns found should indeed be urgently patched and all sites applying said patches promptly as exploits can quickly take down large parts of the Internet if not patched.

Thanks johnraff for doing this to protect BL and its users!

Re: PHP vulnerabilities

Just to follow-up, here is the list of affected products, as published by https://cert.europa.eu/publications/sec … s/2026-018

    PHP 8.5 versions prior to 8.5.12
    PHP 8.4 versions prior to 8.4.27
    PHP 8.3 versions prior to 8.3.36
    PHP 8.2 versions prior to 8.2.35
    End-of-life branches (PHP 8.1 and older), which no longer receive updates from the PHP project [4]

Some people advise to even take servers hosting vulnerable versions offline until patched.
