Research direction
The issue names WSL, PHP, Windows 10, and MySQL 8.0 but does not identify a repository file, test, or specific failure. Start by reproducing the connection setup and reviewing the WSL host-networking and MySQL configuration involved; done means PHP running in WSL can connect to the Windows MySQL instance.
