AI finds critical PHP flaws, global websites at risk

Artificial intelligence has uncovered critical security vulnerabilities in PHP, a programming language used by roughly 70% of websites worldwide, prompting urgent global responses. The flaws, which could let hackers access servers without login, were found with AI assistance and led to emergency patches and temporary shutdowns of government sites in Europe, including a University of Geneva website. The Korean government has issued a nationwide security alert to businesses and website operators, and Yonhap reports the discovery would have been impossible without AI, while experts warn hackers could use AI for large-scale attacks. Ami Luttwak, co-founder of Wiz, called it "the most serious AI-discovered vulnerability," and Korean media describe AI as a double-edged sword in cybersecurity.
