How to read a status
Each status has a shape, a word and a border style. Colour is never the only signal.
Fixed
The record you are reading lists a fix, or the vendor says the release was never affected (“Not affected”, tagged “Vendor statement”). The scope is always named: this release, this package, this host.
Next: confirm you run that version or later.
Not fixed
Only for a value you pasted: it is below the fixed release for its branch.
Next: update, then check again.
Needs attention
No fix you can simply install, or one that depends on someone else: an end-of-life branch, a vendor still working, a workaround only.
Next: wait for the vendor, or apply the workaround.
Unconfirmed
We could not confirm it from an official source, or only one official source says so. Unknown is never shown as fixed.
Next: check the vendor's own page.
Why a lower number can be fixed
26.10 (stonking) ships php8.5 8.5.9-0ubuntu2.1. That number is lower than the upstream fixes listed above, yet 26.10 (stonking) marks it fixed, because the vendor backported the patch to its own version. Compare a package number only with the vendor's own row, never with an upstream number.
| Release | Package and fixed version | Status |
|---|---|---|
| 26.10 (stonking) | php8.5 → 8.5.9-0ubuntu2.1 | Fixed |
| 26.04 LTS (resolute) | php8.5 → 8.5.4-0ubuntu1.5 | Fixed |
| 24.04 LTS (noble) | php8.3 → 8.3.6-0ubuntu0.24.04.13 | Fixed |
A vendor row says one of three things. Fixed names the package version. No fix yet means the vendor lists the flaw but names no package. Unconfirmed means we found no official statement.

Read the method →Official sources only
Every version comes from the project or vendor that ships it. A version is shown as fixed only when two independent official sources agree. With one source we still show it, marked Unconfirmed. Distro rows come from that distro's own tracker.
