Website update checker

Check your website

We'll inspect your website's public information. It is normal for a site to hide its software version.

We check your public homepage only. Some websites hide their software details, so we may need your host to confirm their update.

Simple next steps

You'll know what to do next.

If we can see a software version, we'll compare it with published updates. If not, we'll help you ask the right question without making you learn technical details.

Optional · If you know more

I already know my PHP version

PHP is software that runs many websites, including WordPress. If your host has told you the version, you can compare it here. Otherwise, just use the website address check above.

Version comparison is guidance, not your live server's security status. Hosting vendors may backport security fixes.

What should I do next?

If you're unsure, contact your website host or developer and ask:

“Is my website protected against the October 21, 2026 PHP security issues?”

Official fixed versions include PHP 8.2.35, 8.3.36, 8.4.27 and 8.5.12. Your host may supply equivalent fixes under a different version number.
