NSA warns organizations to patch security flaws identified by AI

The National Security Agency (NSA) warned organizations on Wednesday to immediately patch two critical vulnerabilities in PHP or take their systems offline, after artificial intelligence identified the flaws in the widely used programming language. The NSA's cyber advisory stated: "Effective Immediately, all organizations using PHP for their systems are advised to be prepared for an update addressing two critical vulnerabilities." The warning matters because PHP underpins a large share of web infrastructure, and the flaws were surfaced by AI rather than conventional human review.
