Two unauthenticated RCE flaws in PHP affect all builds since 5.4, with exploitation attempts reported.

Two unauthenticated remote code execution flaws, dubbed php2shell, were found in PHP triggered by simple HTTP requests. The vulnerabilities affect every build since version 5.4. Talos assesses all industries running PHP applications as at risk. Older branches are end of life and will not receive patches. Cisco provides Snort signatures 67359 and 67360 for detection.

Unconfirmed: Exploitation attempts reported but full impact assessment pending.
