Operating system and hosting vendors may backport fixes without adopting these version numbers. PHP 8.1 and earlier require confirmation from the vendor or migration to a supported branch.

What this check can—and cannot—tell you

The check looks for a publicly disclosed PHP version. It cannot confirm hidden environments or vendor backports. Neither an unknown version nor a fixed version indication proves safety or establishes whether a site has been compromised.

FAQ

Before you get in touch

Does this check prove my website is safe?

No. This is a passive check for PHP version information in public response headers. It cannot establish safety, detect a compromise or inventory every server. Even a fixed version indication requires confirmation of your actual environment.

Why couldn’t my website be checked?

PHP versions are often hidden. CDNs and access restrictions can also prevent a check. An inconclusive result does not mean there is no issue. A manual review uses your hosting provider or control panel information.

Can you help with WordPress?

Yes. You can ask about WordPress and other PHP-based sites. The review considers server PHP as well as CMS and plugin compatibility.

How much does it cost?

The passive check is free. Investigation and update costs depend on the environment and scope. We provide an estimate and wait for your approval before beginning work.

Should I send a password?

No. Do not submit passwords, private keys or logs containing personal data. If access is needed, we will arrange a suitable method after agreeing the scope.
