Question ETA for critical PHP security updates (CVE-2026-109618 / CVE-2026-109619)?

[Goose]

Thanks, the plesk installer update in CLI have made the necessary update for my websites.

Still, as reported:

However, the PHP used by the Plesk panel itself (sw-engine) has not been updated yet.

Same for me.

Only tracking or compiling/backporting?

All I know is they are working on providing backported fixes for the versions they support. However, as they are a third-party service, I have no internal information on what exactly is being done on their end.

I'm sorry i don't understand. For older versions (7.4 to 8.1), even on Plesk linux, are these builds/releases in progress ? Do you know when we are going to be able to update ?

Yes, they are in progress. The builds are complete and they are in testing phase. They should be released soon if everything goes well.

For anyone interested, this is what I implemented until an update for sw-engine exists. I suggest to either enable a Firewall rule to allow access to port 8443 only from known IPs and/or use an SSH tunnel to access the admin panel.

The fix for old PHP releases will be done by TuxCare - but do I need the ELS for CentOS license or the ELS for PHP license then ?

Will these be available via the plesk repositry? Plesk makes them available and i have installed these PHP versions via Plesk so i believe Plesk should provide the updates.

If Plesk doesn't make them available and they stay in the repositry then they will knowingly and willingly distribute unsafe versions.

And will the builds for EOL will backported or not?
You info the on article above that you would backport those versions but it has since been removed.

Hello,

I have four servers running Ubuntu 24.04 with Plesk, but none of them is offering me the update.
What can I do to resolve this issue?
Thank you very much for your help.

Hi there,

what about Roundcube? When will it's PHP version be updated as it uses it's own PHP Version AFAIR, that's why webmail is currently disabled over here.
