Two critical vulnerabilities in PHP, nicknamed php2shell, were disclosed by PHP today: CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619.
AlmaLinux 8, 9, and 10 all ship affected PHP versions, and we will release patched packages for testing today.

.@evanrkeller built a web app that tracks his pilot friends’ planes on a vertical touchscreen at their weekly airport meetup.
It runs on AlmaLinux, on a Dell and a Raspberry Pi. Hear how it came together: youtube.com/watch?v=VqWQfyd5… @kellersolution @bennyvasquez
Traditional HPC means SSH, shell scripts, and a batch queue.
@ucl's new AlmaLinux system keeps that, then adds JupyterHub, RStudio, MATLAB and Galaxy through a side cloud! youtu.be/kgizIcwTb60 with @owainkenway @bennyVasquez
Patched PHP packages are now in testing!
