O vulnerabilitate critică în „coloana vertebrală” a internetului face site-uri guvernamentale din întreaga Europă să se închidă

A critical vulnerability in PHP has led to the shutdown of government websites across Europe as administrators rushed to secure their systems. PHP developers identified two serious flaws and urged immediate updates. As hackers began exploiting these vulnerabilities, several countries, including the Netherlands, France, and Finland, took precautionary measures by disabling their websites. PHP is widely used, powering around 75% of websites, raising concerns about potential widespread attacks. Security experts warn that the scale of the threat is significant, especially for smaller sites with limited resources. The situation has prompted various government agencies to act swiftly to protect their online services.
