N-able Update on the Global PHP Issue

Update: October 22, 2026, 18:30 PM EDT

As soon as we learned about the nature of the PHP vulnerabilities, we put mitigating rules and settings in place to keep our customers as safe as possible. As of October 22, 2026,18:30 PM EDT all of our relevant products have been secured against these vulnerabilities and their root causes. [These fixes cover all supported PHP versions on our platform, not just the latest releases.]

What to expect: The initial mitigations remain in place and will be removed once we are confident no further patches are planned. They are not invasive, but they may affect file upload forms.

Update October 22, 2026 11 AM EDT

  • We have completed patching for the following products:
    • Take Control – Integrated with N-central and N-sight. This is limited to Take Control Session routing and does not expand into other areas of the product.
    • N-sight
    • Mail Assure/Spam Experts
    • Passportal
    • *Take Control Standalone patching is nearly complete and we will update here when done.

All other products are not affected.
