Update: On October 23, 2026, the PHP project announced a new vulnerability (CVE-2026-115560). PHP will include the fix in its next regular release. Every Hostinger hosting plan except VPS is already protected by the mitigation applied on October 21. No action is needed. We will install PHP's fix once it is released. VPS clients manage PHP themselves. If your VPS runs PHP, set session.upload_progress.enabled=0 in php.ini and restart PHP. If you already did this on October 21, you don't need to do anything else.

Node.js released version 24.22.1, which fixes 7 security vulnerabilities. We're installing the patched versions on our hosting platform so your app is protected. Node.js 22 and 24 are being updated first. Node.js 20 and 18 will follow once their patches are available. Our security team looked closely at the most serious of the fixed issues (CVE-2026-111497, a bug in how Node.js unpacks Brotli-compressed data). It can't be triggered by visitors coming to your website, there's no known exploit in the wild, and we've added extra protection on our side as a precaution. If you’re on Hostinger hosting plans, nothing for you to do: no rebuild, no re-upload. After the update, we’ll restart your Node.js app so it runs the patched version. VPS users who run Node.js should update themselves You can follow live updates from here: Release notes:

Update: the PHP fix is now live across all managed hosting. Some sites may still show PHP 8.5.11 rather than 8.5.12, and that’s expected. The fix went into the version your site already runs, so the version number stays the same. The "Build Date" is what confirms the fix. Open PHP Info from Hostinger dashboard → Websites → Dashboard, and if it shows Oct 21, 2026 or later, you’re covered. No action needed on your side.

Update: We’ve published a full blog post explaining how we protected our customers, the details of the vulnerabilities, and how to update PHP on VPS and self-managed servers
