PHP Flaw Found by AI Sparks Global Shutdowns

A critical security flaw in PHP, used by about 70% of websites worldwide, was discovered with AI assistance, prompting governments and companies in the US, Japan, and Europe to temporarily shut down websites as a precaution. The vulnerability could let hackers take over servers without admin passwords, and US authorities advised immediate updates or going offline. In South Korea, the government issued a 'caution' cyber alert, but local reports say 82% of domestic PHP servers run old versions that cannot be patched, raising higher risks. Korean media emphasize the danger of AI-enabled attacks and call for a new cybersecurity framework.
