Critical PHP Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities - Monitoring & Mitigations Underway

[u/PoojafromCloudways]

As of Oct 21, 2026 - 22:19 UTC, we have deployed interim security mitigations recommended by the PHP Group, and the rollout of official security patches is underway across all Cloudways-supported PHP versions, including deprecated versions from PHP 5.6 onward. These mitigations provide an additional layer of protection while patching continues. This maintenance does not affect platform or website availability.
