CZ Warns Crypto Users as Critical PHP Flaws Threaten Websites

  • —The two CVEs were rated 9.2 and details leaked before the official release
  • —Exploitation was confirmed in the wild soon after disclosure; WAFs were enabled early
  • —BNB Chain and PancakeSwap said they do not use PHP and user funds are safe
  • —NSA and FBI advised taking systems offline if patching is not immediate
Why it matters: The flaws affect infrastructure used by many crypto exchanges and payment gateways, raising the risk of credential theft and fund loss.
