  • description: The media and AI companies are calling it "Black October" and the "worst cybersecurity incident in history." But is 70% of the internet actually at risk, or is this just fearmongering designed to sell ads and inflate AI valuations? Here's a hint: the story is based on a tweet from an anonymous meme account. In this video, veteran software professional Carl from @InternetOfBugs breaks down the facts: what the PHP vulnerability actually is, why nobody has actually been hacked by it, the real story behind eMudhra and Railway, and why cybersecurity hype is distracting us from the actual threats. If you found this breakdown helpful, don't forget to like, subscribe, and share with anyone who fell for the panic! 🔗 Links & Resources: • Website: https://InternetOfBugs.com • Free Substack: https://internetofbugs.substack.com/ • Support on Patreon (Exclusive videos & weekly Q&A): https://www.patreon.com/c/InternetOfBugs // Media fearmongering https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vZD4PmureWM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ze6he-3F74 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6miTANTPUSA // SNL UK much needed levity https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPLAth2KL/ // Substack essay about this https://internetofbugs.substack.com/p/ai-isnt-better-at-hacking-its-just // This PHP Bug https://www.php2shell.com // Other PHP bugs https://app.opencve.io/cve/?q=vendor%3Aphp+AND+%28cvss30%3E%3D9+OR+cvss31%3E%3D9+OR+cvss40%3E%3D9%29+AND+created%3E%3D2006-11-01 https://app.opencve.io/cve/CVE-2024-4577 // PHP Bug from last century https://app.opencve.io/cve/CVE-1999-0058 // No evidence of any successful PHP hacks for these bugs https://www.rapid7.com/blog/post/etr-cve-2026-109618-and-cve-2026-109619-critical-unauthenticated-remote-code-execution-in-php/ // A PHP Bug that actually hacked people https://x.com/censysio/status/1800989855192658413 // The media being silent on that hack https://www.google.com/search?q=PHP+hack+CVE-2024-4577&tbs=cdr:1,cd_min:6/9/2024,cd_max:6/16/2024 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR1VVi2S5xz_HpeJDM2dZ8wgLOd3ZF9Wv https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR1VVi2S5xz_jUxCriebQmrOYT0E4qD0f https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR1VVi2S5xz94hq2bhREEKPaeVOFzkNf9 https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR1VVi2S5xz_6aEOkCcGA7qUy9fxl6N6y https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLR1VVi2S5xz-F74BoHgFB0FFQIFfAYKCI // Most US cities, like most PHP websites, are tiny with almost no traffic https://www.census.gov/library/stories/2020/05/america-a-nation-of-small-towns.html // TLS security failure https://groups.google.com/a/mozilla.org/g/dev-security-policy/c/0R3XLJL6FuE/m/JESKy8XoAgAJ https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2083449#c11 // OpenAI's propaganda https://openai.com/index/coordinated-disclosure-of-critical-vulnerabilities/ // Railway stores customer keys insecurely https://thehackernews.com/2026/10/railway-says-intruder-may-have-accessed.html // The non-AI GitLab bug https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2026/10/23/regexp-fixes-for-gitlab-cves/ // "Agents found in Banks" were given access by bank customers https://www.axios.com/2026/10/22/ai-agents-banks-unauthorized-accounts-access // OpenAI positioning itself to cash in on its own fearmongering https://fortune.com/2026/10/22/php-security-flaw-ai-powered-attacks-hackers-openai-daybreak/ https://www.axios.com/2026/08/06/openai-hugging-face-black-hat 00:00 - The "Black October" Media Panic 01:18 - Introduction: The Internet of Bugs 01:39 - What is PHP and What Was Actually Found? 02:22 - Lab Exploit vs. Real-World Risk 03:39 - 142 Critical Bugs: Historical Context You Weren't Given 04:40 - Real Vulnerabilities the Media Ignored (CVE-2024-4577) 05:21 - The Reality of PHP's 25-Year Security Record 06:04 - Why the "70% of the Internet" Stat is Misleading 07:19 - Pushing Back on Pundits & Media Cluelessness 07:54 - What Really Happened with eMudhra & Railway 09:53 - The Real AI Threats to Cybersecurity 11:45 - The Locksmith Analogy: AI Hacking vs. Human Pros 12:21 - The Real Problem: Corporate MBAs & Cheap Security 14:14 - Final Thoughts & Conclusion #Cybersecurity #AI #Programming #PHP #InternetOfBugs
