Governments and companies in several countries temporarily took websites offline this week over two critical vulnerabilities in PHP, the programming language that powers much of the internet, which allow an attacker to run code remotely on servers without authenticating.
Summary
PHP’s development team released fixes on Wednesday and urged users to update immediately.
This is a brief wire summary, the full story (linked below) has the complete details.
KazaSec's take
Incidents like this rarely start with the headline event itself, they usually trace back to an exposed remote-access endpoint, an unpatched perimeter system, or a credential phished weeks earlier. The organizations that recover fastest are the ones that tested their defenses and their incident response plan before they needed them.
