“Our check” is a single HTTP status request per site, made by us at the time shown. It is not a scan and does not test for vulnerabilities; a 403 or timeout can simply mean the site blocks automated requests.
Report a site that went offline
Know of a site that went offline in connection with PHP2Shell, or one that is back up? Tell us. Every submission is reviewed by hand before it appears in the table, labelled “User report (reviewed)”.
Questions
Were these sites hacked through PHP2Shell?
Not as far as the sources say. Most sites posted maintenance or precaution notices while they patched PHP. We list them as having gone offline in connection with PHP2Shell, not as compromised.
Where does the outage data come from?
The rows were seeded from the public-domain PHPocalypse Tracker and each row links its original source, such as a news report, a post, or the site's own notice. We add our own HTTP status check time.
What time zone are the times in?
All offline and recovery times are in UTC. For example, 17:05 UTC is 19:05 in Amsterdam (CEST) and 01:05 the next day in Kuala Lumpur.
How often is the table updated?
Our intel routine reviews new reports about every 10 minutes during the day and updates rows once they are verified.
