PHP2shell Vulnerabilities PatchedResolved Oct 30, 2026Resolved

PaymentWorks statement on extent of PHP2shell Vulnerabilities: On October 21, 2026, PaymentWorks became aware of two PHP vulnerabilities affecting public websites throughout the internet. Our internal security review confirmed that the PHP toolchain used by our public WordPress marketing website (www.paymentworks.com) was affected. These specific vulnerabilities: 1. CVE-2026-109618: Memory exhaustion can corrupt PHP's internal state and allow remote code execution (detail: https://github.com/php/php-src/security/advisories/GHSA-w8hw-w9fx-j79w) 2. CVE-2026-109619: Improper cleanup between PHP requests can allow remote code execution (https://github.com/php/php-src/security/advisories/GHSA-6wmf-4rv5-p3rp) We immediately took steps to determine our exposure, implement a patch and verify all our Production WordPress servers that same day. Our use of PHP is limited to our public marketing website, which contains no platform business logic. Our main customer workloads run in a separate PaymentWorks system that does not use PHP for any purpose. A detailed review found no evidence of unauthorized access to, or exposure of, customer data or credentials related to these vulnerabilities.

About PaymentWorks

PaymentWorks Status FAQ

Is PaymentWorks down right now?

The verdict at the top of this page comes from the latest poll of the official PaymentWorks status feed and refreshes automatically, so you are not looking at a stale cached answer. PulsAPI re-checks it every 60 seconds.

What should I do if PaymentWorks is not working?

Check the component list on this page first to see if your failure matches a known outage. If it does, you can report the issue for other engineers, follow the incident timeline for vendor updates, and run any fallback your app supports until PaymentWorks recovers.

How do I check PaymentWorks uptime history?

PulsAPI tracks PaymentWorks uptime over 30, 60, and 90-day rolling windows. The current 30-day uptime is not published yet, because a 30-day figure needs 30 days of tracked history. The 90-day uptime strip on this page is public: no account needed. A free account adds alerts whenever PaymentWorks changes state, plus 15 days of incident detail; Pro extends that to 90 days and Business to 13 months.

How fast does PulsAPI detect PaymentWorks outages?

PulsAPI reads the official PaymentWorks status page. PulsAPI re-checks it every 60 seconds. Alerts reach Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty, or email once a change has held for 5 minutes, so a one-minute blip does not page you.

Does PulsAPI track individual PaymentWorks components?

Yes. PulsAPI monitors 11 individual PaymentWorks components, so you can see which service or region is affected instead of a generic "service degraded" banner.

Can I get alerts when PaymentWorks goes down?

Yes. Create a free account and subscribe to PaymentWorks: the free plan covers three services with unlimited email alerts and no monthly notification cap. Paid plans lift the monitor limit entirely (Pro and above do not meter how many vendors you watch) and route the same alerts into Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, PagerDuty and webhooks.

How do I report an issue with PaymentWorks to the community?

Click "Report an issue" at the top of this page, pick the issue type and severity, and optionally add your region and a short note. Reports are anonymous and help other engineers spot PaymentWorks problems early. Official status pages often lag real incidents by 10 to 20 minutes.

Is there a free way to monitor PaymentWorks?

Yes. The free plan covers 3 monitored services with unlimited email alerts, permanently, so PaymentWorks plus two more costs nothing. Every new account also opens with a 30-day Business trial (unlimited monitors, Slack alerts, SLA reporting) with no credit card.
