Cloudflare customers using our free or paid WAF were protected by default against php2shell (from October 21 at 3:02 am UTC) and Customers should patch their PHP repos even with WAF protections quoted from https://blog.cloudflare.com/php-vulnerabilities-waf-protection/ (title: Cloudflare deploys protections against php2shell vulnerability; authors Daniele Molteni, Dan Jones, Kuber Nandwani). New rules in the Cloudflare Managed Free Ruleset and Cloudflare Managed Ruleset plus a response-side full transaction rule for all plans; the post does not say whether Cloudflare's own services run PHP or are affected and names no fixed PHP version.
