Cloudflare CEO Says PHP2Shell Exploit Attempts Have Reached Millions

Cloudflare’s CEO said exploit attempts targeting PHP2Shell have climbed into the millions, pointing to rapid activity around the newly disclosed security flaws. PHP has already released fixes across four supported branches, according to the report. The vulnerabilities could allow attackers to execute code on affected web servers without logging in, making the issue especially serious for operators that have not yet patched exposed systems. The report did not provide a breakdown of affected services or a timeline for the exploit attempts beyond the CEO’s description. TheDefiant’s item was brief, but it highlighted two core facts: patches are available, and the bugs may enable unauthenticated remote code execution on vulnerable servers. That combination puts the focus on patch deployment for teams running supported PHP branches.
