A significant cyber-storm watch was issued last month by the SANS Internet Storm Center, but received minimal media coverage. The primary threat stemmed from PHP2Shell vulnerabilities, which were discovered with the assistance of an AI model. While patches were released, the slow adoption rate leaves many systems exposed, and AI is accelerating the ability of attackers to exploit these flaws. This mirrors a pattern where major breaches are covered, but the underlying vulnerabilities and their patches are largely ignored by national news outlets. AI
