ClearanceJobs, 23 October: the NSA issued an advisory on Wednesday recommending critical patches for the PHP vulnerability. It quotes the NSA that all users should prioritise vendor patches tied to the PHP2Shell issues and immediately inventory the hardware and software services that rely on now-vulnerable PHP versions.

> It is essential for all to prioritize incorporating vendor patches that may be explicitly tied to the PHP2Shell issues.
