I will fix PHP security vulnerabilities, upgrade PHP and remove malware


Level 2
About this gig
Running an outdated PHP version, worried about PHP2Shell (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619), or found suspicious files on your site? I provide PHP security fixes, PHP version upgrades and malware cleanup for PHP websites and servers.
WHAT I DO
- Check your PHP version and exposure to RCE vulnerabilities using official advisories
- Apply PHP security patches or upgrade old PHP websites to a supported version
- Fix compatibility errors after upgrades (deprecated code, extensions)
- Remove confirmed malware, malicious PHP code and web shells
- Review server security: configuration, file permissions, SSH/cPanel setup
- Verify the result and send a short report
HOW IT WORKS
- Share details securely
- I back up and assess
- I patch, upgrade or clean
- I test and report
Note: The scope of work depends on your website, current PHP version, and server configuration.
Message me first for complex upgrades, legacy PHP migrations or suspected active compromises. On shared hosting, your host controls the server's PHP patch level.

FAQ
Can you update an old PHP website?
Yes, in most cases. I assess code, dependencies and hosting first. Compatibility depends on those, so some old applications need extra modifications, which I will quote before starting.
Can you upgrade PHP without breaking my website?
I take a backup, test on staging where possible, and fix compatibility issues. I cannot promise zero changes for very old or unmaintained code.
Can you fix PHP2Shell?
PHP2Shell is a flaw in the PHP runtime, fixed by updating PHP to an official patched version (8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 or 8.2.35, or your distribution's patched package). I do this where I have server access. On shared hosting, your host must apply it
Can you remove malware and malicious PHP code?
I investigate and remove malicious code I can confirm. I cannot guarantee that every trace is found or that reinfection will never happen
Can you fix PHP compatibility errors?
Yes: deprecated functions, type errors, missing extensions and similar upgrade issues.
Do you support Laravel?
Yes, for upgrade and maintenance of Laravel apps. Please message me first.
Do you need SSH or cPanel access?
For server-level patching or cleanup, yes. For an assessment, version info and logs may be enough. Use a temporary account, never post credentials in public chat
What if my site is already compromised?
Message me before ordering. Do not delete files. I will advise on containment, then scope the cleanup.
Is a backup required?
Strongly recommended. I will take one before changes where access allows.
Do you work on Shopify or other hosted platforms?
YES. I work on Shopify, PHP sites and servers where PHP is under your or your host's control.
