PHP runs 70% of websites. After today, many of them will be exposed. This afternoon (14:00 UTC), the PHP team releases a fix for two critical vulnerabilities. Once the fixes are out, attackers will know how to exploit them. About 2.23 million servers openly say they run PHP. And that's servers, not websites. On shared hosting, one server often runs many sites. The real number of websites is a lot higher. PHP sits under a lot of things that keep businesses running: - Online shops, member portals and intranets on WordPress - Government and enterprise sites on Drupal - Schools and universities on Moodle - Corporate sites on TYPO3 Plus all the custom Laravel and Symfony apps that are the backbone of many businesses. And here's the weird part. The louder we are, the more it looks like "PHP has a security problem". So should we stay quiet? Protect the reputation? No. That would be the real problem. A bug at this level touches a lot of people, most of them not reading security newsletters, with no dev team or support contract. They only find out because someone shares it. Every post today means one more server patched before attackers start scanning. A community that shouts about its own bugs takes security seriously. So yes, some people will use today to bash PHP. Let them. We'll be busy patching. If you need help rolling out the fix on your PHP apps, my DMs are open.

Your PHP developers are great. That's exactly why they won’t touch your legacy code. Not because they can’t. Because they're smart enough to know what it costs them. Every time that ticket reappears in the backlog, it’s not laziness. It’s a rational decision. Nobody wants to spend three days reading undocumented PHP from 2011 to move a button. So it sits. Sprint after sprint. Getting worse and worse. That’s the thing about legacy code – it doesn’t wait. It compounds. Every new feature built on top of it makes the next one more difficult. Every month you leave it, the gap gets wider. We deal with exactly this at Agiledrop: old PHP codebases that teams have been quietly routing around for years. We go in, we understand what the code does, we stabilize it. And your team gets to do the work they actually want to do. #LegacyCode #PHP #SoftwareDevelopment
