Binance founder Changpeng Zhao said users should be careful when visiting websites over the next few days, warning that some site administrators may not install security patches quickly enough. His comment followed the disclosure of two PHP vulnerabilities, tracked as CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, which affect servers running widely used applications including WordPress and Magento. Zhao said patch details had leaked before release, and that fixes were issued on Oct. 21. Exploitation has already been confirmed. According to the post, unauthenticated attacks could turn a visited website into a vehicle for credential theft or device exploitation. The warning points to short-term risk for ordinary web users while patch adoption remains uneven across affected servers.
