PHP Security Update: No Action Needed — We’ve Got You Covered

By Alexa

You may have seen some recent news about critical security vulnerabilities discovered in PHP, a programming language used by many websites, including those built on WordPress.

We wanted to give you a quick heads-up and, more importantly, some peace of mind.

The good news? No action is needed on your end.

Hosting and technology providers have been quick to respond, implementing security patches and additional protections to address these vulnerabilities.

Here at Sleepless, we're staying on top of the latest updates and keeping an eye on developments that could impact the websites and platforms we support.

What does this mean for you?

  • On Shopify? You're in the clear! Shopify's core platform doesn't run on PHP, so these vulnerabilities don't directly affect your Shopify store. Some third-party apps and integrations may use PHP behind the scenes, but those are managed by their respective providers.

  • No action required: There's nothing you need to update or change based on this notice.

  • Security updates are underway: Affected hosting and technology providers are deploying the necessary fixes and safeguards.

  • We're on it: We'll continue tracking the situation and reach out directly if anything requires your attention.

We know security updates can sound a little intimidating, but that's what we're here for. Our goal is to keep your website running smoothly so you can stay focused on running your business.

No stress, no extra homework. We've got your back.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to reach out.
