Mostly PHP, and Mostly Unaffected

Summary

Stelae, a static WordPress host, was largely shielded from the php2shell PHP runtime flaws (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619, CVSS 9.2) because its public sites are plain static files and its WordPress editors sit behind a Go proxy that only forwards requests carrying a secret editor link.
