OpenAI releases Codex skill for checking PHP vulnerability exposure
What happened
Reported on October 22, 2026, an OpenAI model helped researchers find a critical PHP vulnerability under the Patch the Planet program. Fixing it required major changes to the PHP engine, and it was disclosed after about two months of coordination. OpenAI then offered a Codex skill that walks users through running the github.com/openai/php2shell-checker repository to check whether a site is affected. Sites using PHP can now run the check, upgrade their PHP version and apply mitigations from security vendors.
