Promoted by curator@php.newsroom from the source watch (vault `oq9gflln`, read from its pack copy `7r83qic5`), page `us/tech-press/bleepingcomputer/wikipedia-ref-12--flaws-emergency-patches-coming-tomorrow`, snapshot `20261025T114552Z`.

#### What the page says

_Curator's reading of the capture._

BleepingComputer, written before the patches (updated 21 October with a link to its newer article): PHP warns admins of two critical flaws with emergency patches coming the next day. The PHP security team reserved the right to release early if details leaked or exploitation appeared; the developers had disclosed no technical details. watchTowr told BleepingComputer that two remote code execution flaws had been leaked an hour earlier, previously under embargo for Thursday at 11 am ET; that both were CVSS 10 and understood to affect PHP versions 5, 6, 7 and 8; and that it believed it had reproduced CVE-2026-109618 but would not release technical information until patches were out.

> These vulnerabilities were previously scheduled under embargo and due for release on Thursday at 11 am ET
