PHP2Shell Meltdown: AI Found It. Who's Going to Patch It?

(Presented by TLPBLACK: A cybersecurity intelligence platform focused on sharing curated, high-sensitivity threat insights and research with trusted security professionals.) Three Buddy Problem - Episode 117: This week, we dig into PHP2Shell, the AI-assisted PHP bug that led governments to take websites offline, and the arguments over broken embargoes, who found it first, and the AI doomers taking an "I-told-you-so" victory lap. Plus, why patching hasn't kept up with AI bug finding, a failure of SBOMs, Terence Tao on math after AI, the iPhone Duo jailbreak and the eMudhra certificate authority key leak. Cast: Juan Andres Guerrero-Saade and Ryan Naraine. Costin Raiu is traveling.
