CZ Warns Unpatched PHP Websites Could Expose Crypto Users
- —Both PHP flaws are rated 9.2 out of 10 and allow unauthenticated remote code execution
- —Patches for versions 8.2.35, 8.3.36, 8.4.27 and 8.5.12 shipped October 21, a day early
- —No confirmed attacks on crypto exchanges or user wallets have been linked to the bugs
- —PHP Foundation criticized Chainguard for releasing patched images six hours before disclosure
Why it matters: Compromised PHP sites can alter login pages and inject wallet-connection prompts, raising phishing risk for crypto holders.
