Chained PHP2Shell exploit roots 25 servers, including US government systems
Original: Chained PHP2Shell exploit roots 25 servers, including US Government servers
Security researchers report a chained PHP2Shell exploit that gave attackers root access to 25 servers, including machines belonging to the US government. The writeup describes how vulnerabilities were linked together to escalate from web access to full system control. Readers are debating how such chaining defeats piecemeal patching and what it means for government server hygiene.
Why now: The disclosure that US government servers were rooted via a chained exploit is drawing attention to the risks of unpatched web software.
