CYBERSECURITY BREACH: Hackers Probed PHP Vulnerability Days Before Disclosure...

Amazon disclosed that attackers had already begun probing a critical vulnerability in PHP—the programming language powering roughly 70 percent of websites globally—a full four days before the flaw was publicly revealed. The NSA and UK authorities warned Wednesday that the bug, which can grant hackers direct access to servers and databases without credentials, was spreading rapidly across the internet. AI models from OpenAI and Google had discovered the vulnerability after it went undetected for over a decade, raising urgent questions about whether the same AI capabilities helping defenders find security flaws could accelerate their weaponization by attackers.
