TODO.md: track the stale ondrej/php RSA-1024 key warning as an open item
Researched first - Launchpad-wide re-signing artifact, not a live compromise or maintainer issue. Low-priority cosmetic fix, not applied yet: re-add the PPA to pick up the current RSA-4096 key.

- [ ] **Stale RSA-1024 signing-key warning from the `ondrej/php` PPA** — found 2026-07-26

`apt update` on alpha prints: "Signature by key
|

14AA40EC0831756756D7F66C4F4EA0AAE5267A6C uses weak algorithm
|

|
||||
than assuming the PPA itself is compromised or poorly run: this is
|
||||
a **Launchpad-platform-wide** artifact, not specific to Ondřej
|
||||
Surý (a long-established Debian Developer maintaining PHP
|
||||
packaging since PHP 5) or this PPA - Launchpad signed *all* PPAs
|
||||
with one RSA-1024 key since 2009, and newer apt versions (shipped
|
||||
in noble) only just started warning about it everywhere. Launchpad
|
||||
finished re-signing every affected PPA with RSA-4096 by August
|
||||
2024 (confirmed via Launchpad's own answers/support tracker); the
|
||||
warning persists here only because apt's local keyring still has
|
||||
the *old* cached key. No evidence of any compromise or malware
|
||||
incident tied to this PPA.
|
||||
**Fix, not yet applied**: remove and re-add the PPA
|
||||
(`sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:ondrej/php && sudo
|
||||
add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php`) to force-fetch the current
|
||||
RSA-4096 key and clear the warning. Purely cosmetic/stale-cache,
|
||||
not an active security exposure, so low priority - but worth doing
|
||||
next time other apt maintenance is being done on alpha. Also
|
||||
update `SETUP.md`'s `ondrej/php` note (currently just says "check
|
||||
the `Suites:` line") to mention this exact warning and fix.
