[12:57 PM EST 10/23/2026] <b>Update on PHP Vulnerabilities and Service Restoration</b>
We want to provide an update on the recently disclosed vulnerabilities in PHP, software widely used to power approximately 70% of websites worldwide, and their impact on certain Bullhorn solutions.
<b>Most Impacted Solutions Upgraded and Restored </b>
- <b>Access to BBO has been restored</b>
- <b>Talent Platform access has been fully restored</b> following yesterday’s maintenance. Customers can resume normal use. As Talent Platform comes back online, you may notice some temporary slowness, and some records may not be fully synced yet. The system is processing a large backlog of incoming ATS activity, and performance and data should return to normal as the backlog clears.
- <b>Upgraded to address the vulnerabilities and fully available</b>: Talent Platform, FastForward, Market IQ, TargetRecruit, SourceBreaker, Bond APAC Job Portal, BBO and Akyla.
For a comprehensive list, please see our <a href="https://kb.bullhorn.com/ats/Content/BHATS/Topics/SecurityChange/functionalityAndKnownLimitations.htm"><b>Known and Resolved Issues</b></a> and <a href="https://kb.bullhorn.com/ats/Content/BHATS/Topics/SecurityChange/integratedAppStatusExternal.htm"><b>Integrated App Status</b></a>.
