| 1361006 | 2013-11-28 00:27:00 | Not sure how you are supposed to stop this one or how bad it will be. Apparently it affects PHP on Linux PCs. Worm targets Linux PCs and embedded devices The malware spreads by exploiting a 2012 vulnerability in PHP, Symantec researchers said www.computerworld.co.nz |

| 1361008 | 2013-11-28 00:57:00 | I figured as much, although it will be interesting so see if it has an effect on website hosting companies. Mine uses Linux and PHP. | Webdevguy (17166) | ||
| 1361009 | 2013-11-28 03:59:00 | I figured as much, although it will be interesting so see if it has an effect on website hosting companies. Mine uses Linux and PHP. Most would have patched the issue some 12 months ago :p |

| 1361010 | 2013-11-28 09:19:00 | Anyone vulnerable to that (with an unpatched, public facing php-cgi instance) deserves to get it. Mine uses Linux and PHP....which was last updated when? |
