It’s not like these widely used languages are corporate backed, they may receive donation but nobody is hiring security researchers to focus on PHP

Yah in my experiences, I see rust as the natural progression away from PHP…but now with all the llm craze, i bet languages get chosen by how easy an llm can code in it.
PHP, of course, stands for 'Patch Hastily: PHP'
Wonder if we will hear of another PHP RCE drop before the year is over lol
Interesting chain of events that led us to today’s urgent php patching.
