Softbank resumes all emergency alert emails after PHP vulnerability fix

Softbank restored full emergency alert email service for disaster and evacuation information across municipalities, ending a suspension that began on October 23 due to a critical PHP programming language vulnerability. The company completed all maintenance on October 26, restoring service for Softbank, WIMAX, and LINEMO users.

Why it matters. Emergency alert emails are critical for public safety; restoration ensures municipalities and residents receive timely disaster and evacuation warnings via mobile carriers after a multi-day outage caused by a software flaw.
