  1. Investigating

    Akamai is aware of the recently published (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619) vulnerabilities and our teams are actively investigating its potential impact across our platform and infrastructure. As a part of ongoing mitigation efforts, some Quick Deploy Apps, speed test pages, and parts of the website may be unavailable.

    If you are running a vulnerable version of PHP on a Linode instance, we recommend following guidance from the upstream vendor (PHP) and applying upstream patches as they become available.
