About the project

Repository with a PoC exploit for two critical RCE flaws in the PHP core (php2shell), plus detection and patching guidance. Intended for security researchers and administrators.

Useful for
  • Test your own PHP server for php2shell exposure
  • Set up monitoring for suspicious php-fpm child processes
  • Apply the patch or config mitigations from the README before official updates

7.7 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 22, 2026, 03:36 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-22 (UTC), 00:37–03:25: 581 → 644 stars (+63). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +583 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 1 day old and already has 644 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Top new repositories this week: #21.
  • About 187 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
