Some contexts may not properly account for this scenario and leave request memory in an uninitialized state before performing an allocation. The subsequent request cleanup procedure may read or branch on this memory. Multiple OOM strategies can consistently trigger this condition and lead to remote code execution (RCE).\n\n## Affected\n\n- `php-src >= 8.2.* < 8.2.35`\n- `php-src >= 8.3.* < 8.3.36`\n- `php-src >= 8.4.* < 8.4.27`\n- `php-src >= 8.5.* < 8.5.12`\n\n## Remediation\n\nRefer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.\n\n### Workarounds\n\nCheck the GitHub Security Advisory for mitigation strategies.\n\n## Vendor advisories\n\n- **RHSA-2026:88561** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream EUS (v. 10.0) · released 2026-10-23 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:88561)\n- **RHSA-2026:87070** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 10) · released 2026-10-21 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:87070)\n- **RHSA-2026:87071** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 10) · released 2026-10-21 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:87071)\n- **RHSA-2026:87080** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 8) · released 2026-10-21 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:87080)\n- **RHSA-2026:87073** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 8) · released 2026-10-21 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:87073)\n- **RHSA-2026:88565** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream AUS (v.8.4), Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream EUS EXTENSION (v.8.4) · released 2026-10-23 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:88565)\n- **RHSA-2026:88533** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream AUS (v.8.6), Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream EUS EXTENSION (v.8.6) · released 2026-10-23 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:88533)\n- **RHSA-2026:88532** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream E4S (v.8.8), Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream TUS (v.8.8) · released 2026-10-23 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:88532)\n- **RHSA-2026:88659** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream E4S (v.9.2) · released 2026-10-23 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:88659)\n- **RHSA-2026:88835** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream E4S (v.9.4) · released 2026-10-23 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:88835)\n- **RHSA-2026:88725** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream E4S (v.9.4) · released 2026-10-23 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:88725)\n- **Red Hat VEX** · Important · affected: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, Red Hat OpenShift Dev Spaces · no fix planned: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, Red Hat OpenShift Dev Spaces · updated 2026-10-24 · [vex](https://security.access.redhat.com/data/csaf/v2/vex/2026/cve-2026-109618.json)\n- **RHSA-2026:87072** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 9) · released 2026-10-21 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:87072)\n- **RHSA-2026:87079** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 9) · released 2026-10-21 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:87079)\n- **RHSA-2026:87151** · Red Hat · fixed in: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AppStream (v. 9) · released 2026-10-21 · [advisory](https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2026:87151)","depth":"hadal","depthScore":96,"depthScoreParts":{"impact":50.6,"likelihood":20,"exploitation":25,"ransomware":0},"changes":[{"seq":229896,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1793117593515,"field":"exploited","old":"false","new":"true"},{"seq":229895,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1793117593515,"field":"kev","old":"false","new":"true"},{"seq":229894,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1793117593515,"field":"cvss","old":"8.1","new":"9.2"},{"seq":229893,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1793117593515,"field":"severity","old":"high","new":"critical"},{"seq":229819,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1793097946541,"field":"epss","old":"0.11841","new":"0.99981"},{"seq":228592,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1792844805780,"field":"epss","old":"0.05307","new":"0.1162"},{"seq":228591,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1792844805780,"field":"cvss","old":"9.2","new":"8.1"},{"seq":228590,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1792844805780,"field":"severity","old":"critical","new":"high"},{"seq":228280,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1792765731008,"field":"cvss","old":"8.1","new":"9.2"},{"seq":228279,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1792765731008,"field":"severity","old":"high","new":"critical"},{"seq":228121,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1792758115413,"field":"cvss","old":"9.2","new":"8.1"},{"seq":228120,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1792758115413,"field":"severity","old":"critical","new":"high"},{"seq":227892,"id":"CVE-2026-109618","ts":1792714273872,"field":"epss","old":null,"new":"0.05307"}]}
