For OpenCart, PHP2Shell remediation requires patching the PHP runtime. The application version helps identify compatibility blockers; it cannot establish exploitability or prove that either CVE is fixed.

OpenCart - Remove blockers to patch PHP2Shell
Identify the exact OpenCart distribution and modification system before changing PHP. OCMOD, VQMod, themes and marketplace extensions may depend on a specific OpenCart major. The startup check gives only a lower bound. Rehearse the documented application and database migration, then verify checkout, payment notifications, mail and storage paths before reopening order writes.
