#### What the page says

_Curator's reading of the capture._

TV Tech (US, English), 26 October, by Nick Langan: 'How to protect your station from PHP2Shell', written for radio and TV station engineers. It says administrators began pulling affected sites offline after news trickled out on Wednesday, and that about 70% of websites are estimated to run on PHP; it quotes the software engineer Jeff Geerling (via Radio World) that more than half the internet's public services run on PHP, and that millions of routers, device backends and embedded tools also use it, though many do not expose that interface to the public internet; it quotes Microsoft's chief executive Satya Nadella, speaking at an AI Tour event in Germany, 'I've not seen anything like this in a long, long time'; and mentions the separate eMudhra intermediate-certificate compromise and a Node.js issue in the same week, with tips from the FBI.
