These CVEs concern PHP internals, and PHP warns that all installations serving web requests are at risk.

Laravel itself as a PHP framework contains no direct vulnerability code for PHP2Shell (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619), because these are critical core PHP engine vulnerabilities (rated 9.2 CVSS v4.0 for remote code execution via memory/OOM mismanagement). However, any Laravel application running on an unpatched version of PHP is vulnerable. Laravel applications do not need a framework patch; instead, the underlying
