PHP is the cyber equivalent of an unexploded bomb

Cyber-security flaws have recently been identified in the popular PHP programming language, which is used on a vast number of websites worldwide. This situation has drawn a dramatic, public, and global response to a potential cyber event that has not yet occurred.

The PHP vulnerabilities have been quietly resting for years and are not easy to exploit. A cyber security researcher noted that he spent an entire night trying to exploit these flaws as an experiment, but found it very difficult. However, advancements in AI technology are making it easier for malicious actors to exploit such vulnerabilities.
