PHP2Shell exploit hacks bitcoin-baited server in 19 hours

Original: A PHP2Shell exploit cracked a server baited with $2,000 in bitcoin in 19 hours https://www. martincid.com/technology-sv/

A server deliberately left vulnerable and baited with $2,000 in bitcoin as a prize was fully compromised in 19 hours using a PHP2Shell exploit, which turns PHP vulnerabilities into remote code execution on the target machine. The stunt highlights how quickly exposed PHP servers can be taken over once attackers know a bounty is waiting.

Why now: The speed of the compromise and the unusual bitcoin bounty challenge are drawing attention from the security and developer communities.
