PHP Security Advisory: CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619
Oct 21, 23:38 EDT
Resolved - We are aware of two critical PHP security vulnerabilities, CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, announced on October 21, 2026. These vulnerabilities may allow attackers to execute malicious code on affected systems.
------------------------------------
Actions Taken
------------------------------------
For servers running cPanel/CloudLinux and H-Sphere under our management, we have applied the available security updates and made additional PHP configuration changes to help mitigate the vulnerabilities:
session.upload_progress.enabled = 0
session.upload_progress.cleanup = Off
These configuration changes provide additional hardening alongside the security updates.
------------------------------------
Self-Managed Servers
-------------------------------------
Customers who manage their own servers are responsible for applying the relevant PHP security updates and recommended PHP configuration changes.
For assistance with updating your server or applying the recommended PHP configuration changes, please contact our support team at [email protected].
-------------------------------------
Cloudflare Protection
-------------------------------------
For domains using Cloudflare, Cloudflare has deployed Web Application Firewall (WAF) rules to help protect against known attempts to exploit these PHP vulnerabilities. This provides an additional layer of security for your website. However, we still recommend updating PHP and applying the recommended configuration changes to ensure your server is properly protected.
For managed VMs, we have applied the available PHP security updates and recommended configuration changes. For self-managed VMs, customers are responsible for applying the required PHP updates and configuration changes. If you need assistance or more info, please contact our support team at [email protected].
-------------------------------------
Need Assistance or Patch Verification?
-------------------------------------
If you have questions about these vulnerabilities, need help determining whether your server is affected, or would like a report confirming your server's patch status, please contact our support team at [email protected].

MX1.cologlobal.com – Intermittent Service Issues
Aug 31, 07:38 EDT
Resolved - The intermittent email delivery issue has been resolved. We have continued to monitor the service and have received no further reports of delivery issues. Email delivery is operating normally at this time.
Thank you for your patience and understanding while we worked to resolve this issue. If you experience any further issues or notice anything unusual with email delivery, please contact us so we can investigate and assist.
Aug 27, 09:51 EDT
Update - We are providing another update regarding the intermittent email delivery issue.
We have made changes to our sending IP addresses and adjusted our email volume to help prevent further delivery issues. As an additional precaution, the sending limit has been reduced from 500 to 300 emails every 30 minutes.
Please ensure that no more than 300 emails are sent within any 30-minute period.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to resolve this issue.
Aug 23, 21:34 EDT
Update - We are providing an update regarding the intermittent email delivery issue previously reported.
We have issued a refresh of the email service. As part of this refresh, emails that remained in the delivery queue between August 17, 2026 at 6:00 AM and August 23, 2026 at 8:52 PM were removed, and all affected senders were notified.
If you sent an email during this period that was not delivered, please resend the email from your end.
If you are unsure whether a specific email was affected, please contact us, and we can verify whether the email was among those removed from the queue and determine if it needs to be resent.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Aug 22, 17:20 EDT
Update - We are continuing to monitor for any further issues.
Aug 21, 21:53 EDT
Monitoring - We have rebooted the affected system and are currently monitoring the mail services. At this time, we are not seeing any high volume of queued emails or abnormal traffic.
Please allow some time for the queued emails to be processed and resent. Email delivery should continue to normalize as the system works through any remaining queued messages.
If you continue to experience any issues with mail delivery, please contact our support team at [email protected].
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Aug 21, 17:40 EDT
Investigating - Hello,
We are currently aware of intermittent issues affecting MX1.cologlobal.com. We are working with our vendor, SpamExperts, to investigate and resolve the issue.
The mail services are configured for high availability, and MX2.cologlobal.com is operational and able to handle the affected mail traffic.
Customers who have only MX1.cologlobal.com configured in their DNS records may experience intermittent mail delivery issues. If you are experiencing mail-related issues, please verify that both MX1.cologlobal.com and MX2.cologlobal.com are correctly configured in your DNS records.
At this time, the issue is affecting only a small number of customers and is intermittent.
MX2.cologlobal.com remains available and operational.
We will provide additional updates as more information becomes available.

Scheduled Cloudflare DNS Maintenance Notification – 13 August 2026
Aug 13, 09:00 EDT
Completed - The scheduled maintenance has been completed.
Aug 13, 08:00 EDT
In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.
Jul 30, 13:54 EDT
Scheduled - Hello,
We would like to inform you that Cloudflare will be performing scheduled maintenance to upgrade the database infrastructure that manages DNS records, DNS settings, and related metadata. This upgrade is intended to improve performance, security, and availability.
During the maintenance window, updates to DNS records and DNS settings may experience delays or temporary failures. This may affect changes made through the Cloudflare dashboard or API, as well as automated services that create or update DNS records, such as load balancing, Spectrum, or automatic TLS certificate validation.
Please note that your websites and applications will continue to operate normally. The Cloudflare network will continue proxying traffic, and Cloudflare nameservers will continue responding to DNS queries. Only DNS record and settings updates may be affected during this period.
Maintenance Window
Start: Thursday, 13 August 2026 – 12:00 UTC
End: Thursday, 13 August 2026 – 13:00 UTC
Expected Impact
Service impact is expected to last approximately 2–3 minutes during the maintenance window.
DNS record and settings changes may take longer than usual to propagate.
DNS-related API requests may experience intermittent failures or increased response times.
No action is required from your side. We recommend avoiding any planned DNS changes during this maintenance window where possible.
If you have any questions or require assistance, please feel free to contact us.
Thank you,
DS Digital Media
