    There's a new server update and an apr-util update...
    ...but I will do so tomorrow, as there are no mentioned CVEs in the changelog.

    They build fast even on the old compile-box (read: mid-2000s laptop), so not a concern at this time.

    Other than that, I made some changes as to how MariaDB behaves again. At some point, I may upgrade to 11.8, since I do know how to compile it from source this time... since the experiment over six months ago.

    Heh, I accidentally managed to reboot my main laptop instead of this server when installing security updates (kernel-related)...

    ...it was the wrong terminal window.

    ...I started defragging the NAS's RAID5. That's over 17TB of data...
    This will take quite a while, and there are no backups.

    Found in some ancient MySQL manual:

    " The official way to pronounce ``MySQL'' is ``My Ess Que Ell'' (not ``my sequel''), but we don't mind if you pronounce it as ``my sequel'' or in some other localized way. "

    Nope, it just seems to be the neo-blue theme.

    Fixed the logo for this theme, and it now no longer looks awful. I think other themes use the same exact one, so I'll fix that at some point...

    I do not consider this a true update for PHP 7.4.33... that is, until the backports start showing up for the known newer CVE.

    Okay, my PHP 7.4.33 now has a pre-patch (read: incomplete patch) for a known newer CVE. I never applied that to either supported 8.x version I have because it will make it to the next normal release cycle.

    PHP 5.6.40 does not have the code snippet I used from the Github repo; it does not exist in its current form.

    I also compiled ICU4C 79.1 for this server, but I will only apply that to the next 8.6.0 release, which is RC5.

    Ondřej Surý's patches for PHP 5.6.40 was useful for the current CVE fixes.

    Remi Collet's patches for PHP 7.4.33, likewise, though Ondřej Surý has those as well.

    Updates:

    Security, Recompile
    php: 7.4.33 - due to file replacement oversight in patching PHP

    Updates!

    Security
    php: 5.6.40 (EOL patch)

    -- PHP 7.4.33 needs to be recompiled due to user error removing other patches... current CVE patches are present, though --

    Funny, I forgot to remove the other half of the mitigation of those PHP versions... Done.

    Mitigation temporarily removed just for this post (as multipart is required for this section to function):

    Remi Collet's patch for PHP 7.4 has arrived! So, I will /try/ to look at it for PHP 5.6.

    This server has been mitigated against CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619. I am going to have to backport patches for PHP 5.6.40 and PHP 7.4.33, however.
