@reinink I'm honestly not sure. I think it's more about what's enabled by default on a fresh php install, which I guess this might be?

PHP security team: keep session.upload_progress.enabled=0 until the next bugfix release. It blocks a rare RCE path, CVE-2026-115560.

My interview with Volker Dusch is now live.

If you want more than social media takes on PHP2Shell, we cover how it was reported, why patches take time to reach your server, the fake exploits, and where the "turn it off" advice came from.

"The Foundation says distributors were still packaging fixes. Every one of them held back so that nobody would be left exposed while someone else had a head start. Chainguard decided, without the PHP team, that its read of the risk outweighed everyone else's, and everyone else had to scramble." - @ericlbarnes

@FlorianStradner I don’t know German so probably. 😛

Somewhere, a CTO just found out their servers still run PHP 5.6 💀
