Just pulled the new matomo that was published on dockerhub 26 minutes ago, thinking it has the patched PHP version: # docker pull matomo:latest latest: Pulling from library/matomo Digest: sha256:6e63589d31ec653f78e029084d21488640fdbbd9a42c96c872098f42c8678a02 Status: Image is up to date for matomo:latest docker.io/library/matomo:latest # docker run --rm matomo:latest php --version PHP 8.4.26 (cli) (built: Oct 21 2026 00:31:19) (NTS) Copyright (c) The PHP Group Built by https://github.com/docker-library/php Zend Engine v4.4.26, Copyright (c) Zend Technologies with Zend OPcache v8.4.26, Copyright (c), by Zend Technologies The PHP build is from today, which is doubly misleading. 8.4.27 is the patched release, not 8.4.26. I wonder how many people will pull this image thinking they're good to go online again.
In PHP 8.2.35
A PR was posted within a minute or two of PHP's source code update. Then within a minute of the PR's CI job completing, it was merged, and the build took a while but is now complete: https://github.com/docker-library/php/actions/runs/396158697... It would not be easy (or reasonable) to take a public build like that private to build a 'secret' image version, and I'm not sure GitHub even has the capability to do that. I would not trust a build pushed to Docker Hub separate from the established / public / auditable process they have in place.
In PHP 8.2.35
The PR with the update is here: https://github.com/docker-library/php/pull/1694 Looks like we need to be patient: > Why is this not merged yet? > I'm not a maintainer and can not merge this. Please wait until a maintainer has come around to look into this. > This is merged, but I cannot find the image? > After this PR has been merged, more steps are to be taken, including an upstream merge on docker-library/official-images and subsequent image builds. For a full description of the timeline, please refer to docker-library/faq#an-images-source-changed-in-git-now-what.
