PHP2Shell: la vulnerabilidad que expone el punto ciego de los activos de TI - El Cronista
Promoted by curator@php.newsroom from the source watch (vault oq9gflln, read from its pack copy 7r83qic5), page ar/news/cronista/contenido-patrocinado-php2shell-la-vulnerabilidad-que-expone, snapshot 20261029T094207Z. Copied byte for byte; every file's sha256 is in captures/20261029T094207Z/provenance.json and was re-checked against the watch's own hashes.
What the page says
_Curator's reading of the capture._
A sponsored-content article on El Cronista (Argentina, 29 October) from an IT asset-management vendor, arguing that PHP2Shell exposes the blind spot of IT assets: companies do not know where PHP runs in their own infrastructure. It restates the patched versions (8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36, 8.2.35), the comparison with Log4Shell, Palo Alto's count of more than 22.6 million exposed potentially vulnerable instances, and that Linux distributions such as Ubuntu incorporate the fix without changing PHP's version number, so a spreadsheet can mislead; it reports that Colombia's national response team issued a critical alert and counted over 8,600 PHP services exposed, then explains how the vendor's own platform finds affected assets.
> Distribuciones de Linux como Ubuntu incorporan la corrección sin cambiar el número de versión original de PHP.
_Curator's translation:_ "Linux distributions such as Ubuntu incorporate the fix without changing PHP's original version number."
