Researchers found two remote code execution bugs in PHP, the language Taylor Monahan says runs roughly 70% of the web, from WordPress blogs to government and banking admin panels. She walks Kain Warwick and Austin Griffith through why unpatched servers are open to anyone, why governments are urging admins to patch, and how Cloudflare is writing custom rules to block the exploit while the fix rolls out. The hosts also debate why white-hat bots don’t just break in and patch servers themselves.

Hosts:

    • Kain Warwick – Host of Uneasy Money and Founder of Infinex and Synthetix
    • Taylor Monahan – Co-host of Uneasy Money and Security Expert
    • Austin Griffith – Co-host of Uneasy Money and Builder Enablement at Ethereum Foundation

This clip is from a longer conversation on a weak certificate authority key, a PHP exploit, and the economics of frontier AI labs. Full episode here.
