Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo


We are writing to inform you about a critical global security vulnerability affecting the PHP programming language, commonly referred to as “php2shell” (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619). This vulnerability impacts over 70% of websites worldwide, including several of the digital platforms utilized by Friendina College. Please be assured that our Information Technology team is actively monitoring the situation and working continuously to implement necessary safeguards to protect our networks and prevent any service disruptions.

  • Action Required — Platform Monitoring: If you experience any technical difficulties, performance anomalies, or access issues with the Student Portal or any other institutional digital platform, please report them to us immediately.
  • Notice of Email Delivery Delays: Additionally, a scheduled maintenance window late last week and early this week resulted in an isolated email delivery delay. Consequently, some emails sent to our servers during this time frame may not have been successfully delivered. While the underlying issue has been fully resolved, we ask that you resend any messages transmitted during this period if you have not yet received a response. Our team is standing by to prioritize and address these communications promptly.

Thank you for your cooperation, vigilance, and patience as we work to maintain the security and reliability of our campus infrastructure.
