Check if your website is affected by PHP2Shell and fix it today: the exact versions, the steps for shared hosting, WordPress or your own server, and the stopgaps if you cannot update yet

The companion to the video "URGENT: AI Found a Hole in 70% of Websites. Check Yours in 2 Minutes". PHP2Shell is the name for two critical bugs in PHP itself (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, rated 9.2 out of 10), disclosed on October 21, 2026, after AI-assisted research. INSIDE: (1) STEP 1, FIND YOUR VERSION — where WordPress shows it (Tools, Site Health, Info, Server), your hosting panel, or php -v, and the fixed list from php.net: 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36, 8.2.35. (2) STEP 2, UPDATE IT — shared hosting with a copy-paste support ticket, Ubuntu/Debian and RHEL commands, Docker image tags, and a Claude Code prompt that checks every PHP install and asks before changing anything. (3) CAN'T UPDATE TODAY — the official stopgap settings from the php.net advisory, two warnings, and every source. For protecting your own sites only: no attack details.
