US government says hackers are now exploiting critical PHP web bugs

The U.S. government cyber agency reports that hackers are actively exploiting vulnerabilities in PHP, which powers approximately 70% of web-based software. The agency issued a warning about this exploitation activity affecting a widely deployed technology stack.

Why it matters: Web developers and system administrators running PHP applications need to assess their exposure and apply patches immediately, as adversaries are already weaponizing these flaws against production systems.
