Cloudflare’s Matthew Prince said the network saw thousands of exploit attempts even before the PHP vulnerability was publicly disclosed.
Cloudflare’s CEO Matthew Prince warned that the network saw millions of exploit attempts after two critical PHP vulnerabilities were publicly revealed.
In the 10 hours before the vulnerabilities’ disclosure, the network saw thousands of exploit attempts, which have now reached “millions,” Prince said in a Thursday X post.
On Wednesday, the PHP Foundation acknowledged that a shortage of resources delayed a fix for a critical security flaw first identified in 2024. PHP developers released emergency patches for two critical vulnerabilities on the same day.
