The US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) added two critical PHP flaws, CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, to its…

CISA has added two new vulnerabilities to its Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) Catalog and updated the PHP Alert, Critical Vulnerabilities in PHP Require Immediate Patching :   CVE-2026-109618 – PHP Memory Corruption Vulnerability  CVE-2026-109619 – PHP Stale Internal Request-State Vulnerability  These types of vulnerabilities are a frequent attack vector for malicious cyber actors and pose significant risks to the federal enterprise.  Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04: Prioritizing Security Updates Based on Risk establishes vulnerability management requirements for Federal Civilian Executive Branch (FCEB) agencies. BOD 26-04 reinforces the importance of the KEV Catalog and requires federal agencies to prioritize rapid remediation of high-risk vulnerabilities, specifically those identified by Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) listed in CISA’s KEV Catalog on publicly exposed assets that grant total control of the asset post-exploitation, while deferring action for lower-risk vulnerabilities. BOD 26-04 further establishes basic expectations for when agencies must check whether threat actors compromised the system before the patch was applied.  While BOD 26-04 applies only to FCEB agencies, CISA encourages all organizations to adopt risk-based vulnerability management and prioritize remediation of KEV Catalog vulnerabilities . CISA will continue to add vulnerabilities to the catalog t...
