CVE-2026-109618/109619 PHP session.upload_progress Exploit Research — POC & Analysis

Save to My finds to follow releases and star growth. Saved in this browser.

About the project

A proof-of-concept toolkit for two PHP pre-auth RCE vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619) affecting PHP 5.4.0 through 8.5.11, with exploits, detection rules, and a lab environment.

Useful for
  • Reproduce the OOM-based RCE chain against a local PHP-FPM or mod_php lab container.
  • Deploy the provided Suricata, Sigma, or ModSecurity rules to detect session.upload_progress exploitation attempts.
  • Verify whether a target PHP version is vulnerable using the included PoC verification scripts.

8.6 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: 946 → 1071 stars (+125). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +1,011 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • The repository is 1 day old and already has 1,071 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • Top new repositories this week: #14.
  • About 280 forks a day — people are taking the code.
  • Recent forks include notable developers: @depycode (237 followers).

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.
