PHP, which is the code which runs the website, has a terrible security vulnerability. Websites like this one have been advised to go offline until the vulnerability is fixed.

 
 
 

 

Here is the warning:

Security advisory: Critical remote code execution vulnerabilities, update now

PHP 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 and 8.2.35 fix two critical vulnerabilities that can allow unauthenticated remote code execution. All PHP users are strongly encouraged to update immediately.

Who is at risk: all PHP installations serving web requests, including PHP-FPM, Apache with mod_php, php-cgi, FrankenPHP and LiteSpeed. We consider the risk highest for mod_php, with a demonstrated exploit where an unauthenticated request can trigger the attack before any application code runs.
